iFixit tears down Microsoft’s Surface Pro, rates it 1 out of 10 for repairability

You know the drill (or is that screwdriver?) by now. New gadget lands at the iFixit labs, and the good folk there give it a teardown. Microsoft’s Surface Pro is this week’s lucky slab of silicon to hit the bench. The good news is that a removable battery and SSD will make swapping those out a charm. That’s pretty much it for the good news though. The less good news is the sheer number of screws you’re going to have to contend with (over 90 by iFixit’s count). The bad news is that screen is a real fiddle to remove, and there are globs of adhesive to navigate (holding that battery and screen in place for example). The worst part? By our tool-weilding friend’s reckoning, you’ll be lucky not to sever a major cable artery just by opening the thing. All this gives the Surface Pro a repairability rating of just one (ten being the best). Best treat yours with the love and care it deserves then.
