Summary
Based on the teardown the repairability of the Honor 8C seems to be fairly average. The lack of adhesive used for the back cover and the easily accessible battery and battery cable are positive aspects that make repairs easier. However the use of adhesive for the battery and the need to remove plastic covers and metal plates to access certain components are negative aspects that may make repairs more difficult. Overall I would give the Honor 8C a score of 8 out of 10 for repairability.
