Summary
Based on the teardown the repairability of the OnePlus 12R 5G seems to be moderate. The use of strong adhesive for the back cover and battery can make it difficult to open and replace these components without the use of alcohol. However the battery cable and battery are easily accessible and pull tabs are provided for battery removal which is a positive aspect. The screen cable and screen can also be removed without having to remove too many components which is another positive aspect. Overall I would give the repairability of the OnePlus 12R 5G a score of 6.0 out of 10.
