LG G Watch: A complete analysis of iFixit (and 9 out of 10 on a scale to be repaired)




The guys from iFixit disassembled the new devices continue, quite literally, on cogs. Now they dismantled the smart watch from LG, LG G Watch.

Interestingly, this little device has been very rationally assembled in such a way that almost any shop will be able to repair the clock. Ranked # 9 of 10 on a scale to be repaired (10 - the highest score) speaks for itself.

This is not Microsoft Surface Pro 2, which received a score of 10.

That's what used to disassemble a watch:











Unscrew all 4 screws T5 Torx, otschelkivaem couple mounts and all - you can open the case.









Remove the battery. This is - 3.8 V, 400 mAh battery. Incidentally, a similar model from Samsung is set to 300 mAh battery.









But the tiny rubber gasket, which serves to protect the clock from dust and makes them waterproof (up to dive under water to a depth of 1 meter for half an hour). In general, diving is not recommended, usually "diving 1m" - a welcome marketers. But the dishes they can wash. Maybe take a shower too (check? :))







Remove miniature motherboard.
