The company’s recent designs reflect this changed approach. Microsoft claims that repairability was a “primary emphasis” in the design of the Surface Pro 9, and iFixit confirms this in its independently done breakdown of the Windows tablet. The user-accessible SSD is just the beginning. When you’re delving into the internals, the battery is screwed in rather than glued in, and the display is simpler to remove. According to iFixit, this is the “most repairable” Surface ever, and a stark contrast to the infamously difficult-to-fix models of the past.
