Summary

Based on the teardown the repairability of the Samsung Metro B313 seems to be fairly average. While there are some positive aspects such as the lack of adhesive and easy access to the battery there are also some negative aspects such as the need to disassemble multiple components to replace the screen and the soldered charging port. Overall I would give the device a score of 7.0 out of 10 for repairability.

Disassembly

Positive Negative
No adhesive used for the Back cover. Clips can be removed without using a heat gun. Several components need to disassembled to replace the Screen.
Pull tabs are provided to remove the Battery. Charging port soldered to the main board making it hard to replace.
Battery cable and the Battery are easily accessible. Screen cable is soldered to the main board.
Easy to disassemble.
