Surface Pro 9 Teardown: The Most Repairable Surface In Years

For ages, Microsoft’s Surface Pros were about the least repairable tablets on the market, thanks largely to the tenacious glue used under the screen — a battery or SSD replacement would sometimes mean breaking the display. Today we’ve got the Surface Pro 9 on our teardown table and we’re excited to see what’s inside! Quick disclaimer: We do consulting work for Microsoft’s hardware team. We do the same kind of analysis for them that we do here on the channel: dissect their hardware and share ideas for making it more repairable. We also sell Microsoft’s tools to our Pro business customers. However, our teardowns are conducted with full editorial independence, with devices purchased by iFixit, and Microsoft has had no input or involvement in the making of this video.
