Microsoft Surface Pro X Considered As The Most Repairable Tablet Ever

As we all know, the Surface Pro X has hit the market for a while. The Microsoft-branded tablet comes with a slew of extraordinary specs, and now it delivers a smart design in terms of ease-of-repair. The DIY website iFixit has shown that the device featuring a couple of smart design decisions now can compete with any most repairable tablets in the consumer market.

First and foremost, let’s see how the Surface Pro X has been built with its SSD. In fact, you’ll only need a SIM eject tool to access the compartment holding the drive. As such, you don’t need to take the plunge when getting at the internal storage because the display won’t be pried off at all. Surface Pro X boasts a lot of advantages we can talk about, but this is actually the most appreciated feature we can expect as it allows us to upgrade our SSD in a very easy way.

Not like many other tablets, the display of the Surface Pro X is much easier to take over from the main body. You can make it a lot more workable without the need of applying heat to the foam adhesive as usual. Other parts are also repair-focus, including screws, USB-C ports, and more.

The teardown suggested a 6/10 of repairability score, compared to a 3/10 of the iPad Pro. This means Microsoft’s tablet is more repairable than the tablet of Apple, so users can have more details when choosing which one is worth their future purchase when it comes to the ability to repair the device themselves.
