The team of iFixit has “torn to pieces” the new Alpha Galaxy Samsung (review here HDBlog ) to take a look at the internal components and to assess the degree of repairability. The Galaxy Alpha is the first smartphone made by Samsung using a metal shell .
Once you remove the back cover you have quick access to the battery which can be easily removed or replaced . However, if you need to access the internal components, the situation becomes much more complex.
To access the motherboard, in fact, it is necessary to remove the LCD display. To do this you need a lot of “heat” to soften the large amount of glue used, time, patience and attention to prevent damage to the device. The display has a very small thickness, just 1.4mm.
Rmosso the display, many components are modular and can be easily replaced. However, there are plenty of flat cables, very fragile, and awkward to undock.
Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Alpha has obtained a score of 5 for repairability in a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 represents the greatest difficulty.
