LG G5 Repairability Score: 8 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair)

The user-removable, slide-out battery is a huge boon to phone lifespan.

No glue and few screws make for a relatively simple opening procedure.

Standard Phillips #00 screws means the right tool is probably already in your toolbox.

Many components are modular, making for easier, cheaper part replacement.

Module covers are glued on, making repairs a bit sticky—but the module itself greatly simplifies the process of replacing a faulty USB port.

The fused display assembly will need to be replaced if the LCD or glass breaks, increasing costs.
