Samsung Gear Live Repairability Score: 8 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair)

The band detaches readily, and more or less like a regular watch band—making replacements a simple, worry-free affair.

Despite the water-resistant construction, opening the case is no big deal. Bring your T5 driver and pry tools, but don't expect a fight.

The battery is readily accessed and replaced—with a friendly "Pull" tab to cheer you along.

Several small adhered-in flexible PCBs will present a challenge during repairs.

The fused display assembly, glued right into the chassis, makes screen replacement a dubious and costly proposition.
