Summary
Based on the teardown the Huawei Mate 10 Lite has a fairly good repairability score of 8.0 out of 10. The device does not use any adhesive for the back cover making it easy to access the battery and screen. However the battery is secured with adhesive which can make it difficult to replace. Additionally a T2 Torx screwdriver is needed to disassemble the device which may be difficult to find.
