  • While this top-secret prototype is hardly a consumer device, we're happy to give it a Repairability Score.

  • Project Tango Tablet Repairability Score: 4 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair).

  • The rear case is super easy to open with no screws or adhesives—only plastic clips.

  • Several cables cover the battery and make it a pain to remove—but at least you don't need to melt adhesive.

  • Low modularity—several components soldered to the same components makes replacement parts more expensive.

  • Complex internal construction—this thing is full of cables and not at all fun to disassemble or reassemble.
