"The display connector can only be accessed through the back, which means you can't just replace the screen - you basically have to disassemble the whole phone just to get to the screen's connector."
"Samsung's battery release mechanism is praised, and is even called simpler than Apple's. The USB port is very easy to remove and replace in case it dies."
"In the end, the S26 Ultra gets a 5 out of 10 provisional repairability score, where 10 would be most repairable and 0 would be least repairable."
"If Samsung took the availability of spare parts more seriously, that would go up to 6 out of 10, on par with the Pixel 10 family and one point shy of the latest iPhones."
The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra's teardown reveals that accessing the display connector requires disassembling the entire phone. The battery release mechanism is simpler than Apple's, and the USB port is easy to replace. However, replacing the selfie camera and screen is difficult. The device receives a provisional repairability score of 5 out of 10, which could improve to 6 with better spare parts availability, aligning it with the Pixel 10 family and just below the latest iPhones.
