Samsung Galaxy S7 was disassembled by iFixIt yesterday to present to the whole world everything that is hidden inside the case of the new Samsung smartphone, and one of the discoveries is that the terminal is more difficult to repair than iPhone 6S.
More specifically, Samsung Galaxy S7 got a score of 3 out of 10 in terms of the ease with which it can be repaired by services, this note makes it extremely difficult to repair if users have problems with some of the internal components.
If we look at iPhone 6S that gets a grade of 7 out of 10 regarding the ease with which it can be repaired by the services, we note that the terminal from Cupertino may be easier to repair if it is necessary to replace any component.
The difference between the grades received by the two terminals is perfectly normal because The Samsung Galaxy S7 is water resistant and the iPhone 6S is not officially, although unofficially, it can stay under water for up to 10 minutes at a shallow depth without affecting the substance.
Samsung Galaxy S7 Repairability Score: 3 10 out of (10 is easiest to repair). Many components are modular and can be replaced independently. Unlike the S6 Edge, the battery can be removed without first removing the motherboard—but tough adhesive and a glued-on rear panel make replacement more difficult than necessary. The display needs to be removed (and likely destroyed) if you want to replace the USB port. Front and back glass make for double the crackability, and strong adhesive on the rear glass makes it very difficult to gain entry into the device. Replacing the glass without destroying the display is probably impossible.
