  • Nokia N8 Repairability: 8 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair)

  • The battery, although considered by Nokia not to be user-serviceable, can be easily removed.

  • The AMOLED display easily comes apart from the glass, which means that you can replace the glass and the display independently.

  • There are mostly mechanical fasteners, and very little glue inside.

  • You still have to use a heat gun to remove the front glass, but at least you're heating up metal that won't deform as easily as plastic.

  • Removing the cameras is near-impossible, and requires tedious, potentially detrimental steps.
