Removing the back cover without cracking it is easy enough (it's plastic), but replacing the screen takes some doing.

                        I'm happy to see that this phone has an aluminium frame whereas most phones with a tall display (except certain Sonys) have a soft plastic frame

                          Pretty shocked how it is easy to remove the back cover to replace the battery. It is almost as a replacable battery phone. The battery needs to be un-tied to the motherboard but still. Very good build choice.

                                    If only they refreshed that design instead of going with glass backed phones with huge notches!!

                                      It seems well constructed, I'll give them that much. But consider the price they're asking for it and the specifications it has, I'm still not impressed with the bang for buck aspect, nor am I impressed with the ruggedization. From this teardown, it looks the same as any other smartphone with a few minor tweaks that certainly aren't worth €250.
