Summary

The Samsung S23 Ultra has a repairability score of 7.5/10. It has a battery pull-tab which is repair-friendly in theory but it is not the easiest way to remove a battery. The periscope camera is the same 10x optical module from last year's model and the curved screens are difficult to remove due to the strength of the glue used. Samsung is making progress in terms of repairability but they have also cracked down on third-party OLED suppliers which runs counter to the increasing demand for more repairable devices. With the addition of parts and manuals the repairability score could increase to 7.5/10.
