Step Lines

-[* black] The moment we've all been waiting for—skip the drumroll—the ultimate layout of ultimate destiny.
+[* black] Amazon Fire Phone Repairability: ***3 out of 10*** (10 is easiest to repair)
+[* green] External, non-proprietary screws means no adhesive holding the device together, and an easier time getting in.
+[* yellow] While adhesive tabs on the battery ease its removal, it's still a pretty tricky job—if you break the (flimsy) pull tabs, you'll be heating and prying.
+[* red] Tons of cables and connectors make disassembly tedious and reassembly difficult.
+[* red] The four Dynamic Perspective cameras are encased in glue. Replacement will mean heat and cutting.
+[* red] A replacement display assembly will need to include four replacement cameras ($$), or will require a lot of extra work transferring cameras.
+[* red] The Fire Phone is not modular; several components share cables—this will increase the cost of replacement parts.
