Despite its slim profile, the device is relatively easy to repair, with efforts to simplify component removal and repairability, earning a 7 out of 10 score. The teardown also confirms the use of a custom Apple battery in the MagSafe Battery pack, and highlights the use of 3D printed titanium alloy for the USB-C port.
