Summary
Based on the teardown the repairability of the Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime is not great. The use of adhesive for the back cover and battery as well as the need to remove several components to access the battery make it difficult to repair. Additionally the charging port is soldered to the board and the screen needs to be removed first which is a delicate procedure. Therefore I would give the device a score of 4 out of 10 for repairability.
