  • GoPro Hero4 Session Repairability Score: 1 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair)

  • The front bezel is held in place with eight T4 Torx screws and is easily replaceable.

  • Accessing the device for internal repairs means ripping, tearing, and dremeling through a rubber band, plastic casing, and copious amounts of glue, making reassembly infeasible.

  • The inner components are assembled together in a web of circuitry and adhesive.

  • The "integrated" battery is soldered and glued to the rest of the device, meaning battery replacement is next to impossible.

  • As always, a hearty thanks to our friends at Creative Electron for their eye-popping images and expertise!
