Summary
Based on the teardown the repairability of the Tecno Phantom V Fold seems to be quite low. The use of adhesive for the back cover and battery makes it difficult to open and access internal components. Additionally the need to remove plastic covers and metal plates to access cables adds to the complexity of repairs. The foldable display also poses a challenge for disassembly. Overall I would give this device a score of 6.5 out of 10 for repairability.
