JAKARTA - Despite the slow growth, the ultra premium smartphone segment still has its fans. In the midst of fewer choices, users are usually more selective when buying devices from that class.

And among the various assessment factors, the ease of repair is one that is often considered. However, this convenience is what makes Android phones more marketable than competitors, namely iOS or Symbian.

Based on testing the iFixit site, which is experienced in dismantling various smartphones, it was found that the Xiaomi Mi 11 is the only ultra premium smartphone that is the easiest to build.

The site contains tutorial articles to repair the smartphone specifically mentions that the Xiaomi Mi 11 gets a score of 4 out of 10. This means that the Mi 11 is easier to repair than the Galaxy S21 (which got a score of 3 out of 10).

However, among all the flagship phones, the new iPhone smartphone is the easiest. The results that make this Apple product outperform the Huawei Mate 40 Pro, the latest cellphone that has the best camera capability by the DxOMark version.

These results make iFixit praise the performance of Mi 11. In fact, according to iFixit's explanation, users only need a standard-sized screwdriver to disassemble all the cover components.

Not only that, iFixit also mentions that users can replace the screen and battery components themselves. The reason is, the two components do not stick too closely. So that it is easy to remove without jeopardizing the overall component structure.

However, there are some notes that users must pay attention to if they want to take the device apart themselves. Like a curved screen that requires special equipment to be removed and the back is made of glass so it breaks easily.

"Also users have to replace the screen if the in-display fingerprint scanner is damaged," notes iFixit.

In addition, iFixit is a Wiki-style site that teaches readers how to fix anything. Anyone, even without experience or basic knowledge, can fix the problems with their electronic devices.

In addition, the company team also frequently shares the results of dismantling the latest cellphone products. In accordance with the company's vision, the content aims to fight for user rights so that their devices can be repaired, without the need to buy a new device.
