Nexus 5X Repairability Score: 7 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair).

• Many components are modular and can be replaced independently.
  
  
• Standard Phillips screws means a driver is easy to find.
  
  
• The battery isn't immediately user accessible but isn't too challenging, or too adhered, to replace.
  
  
• Fused display assembly—glass and LCD will need to be replaced together if one or the other breaks.
