Summary
Based on the information provided the repairability of the LG K9 seems to be fairly good. The lack of adhesive and the use of clips for the back cover make it easy to access and remove components. The battery and screen are also easily accessible and can be removed without too much hassle. However the need to remove the mid frame to access parts and the soldered charging port are potential challenges for repairs. Overall I would give the device a score of 8.0 out of 10 for repairability.
