Huawei P20 Pro was recently presented by the Huawei company, and a first disassembly shows us that the Chinese phone turns out to be more difficult to repair than the phones iPhone X of the Apple company. Those from iFixIt disassembled the Huawei P20 Pro to see what's hidden inside, and what they discovered confirms the fact that the big manufacturers don't want people to get involved with repairing their phones.
The Huawei P20 Pro received a score of 4 out of 10 in terms of the ease with which it can be repaired, while the iPhone X received a score of 6 from iFixIt, a considerable difference between the phones.
