iFixit: surface pro 4 has the repairability score 2 / 10
Hugh: hold my beea

I see you changed your profile picture nice!

Clearly enough space to use screws + clips on the display panel. Microsoft really loved to make repairs difficult.

[deceptor]

How you Ausies manage to do such a good job whilst standing on your head amazes me. Well done.

You don't see a lot of surface pro repairs on yt... This is refreshing to watch! Keep it up!

[Leonsimages]

Although I appreciate Microsoft making their newer products more repairable and upgradable, I think it's ridiculous that being able to repair a product has become a significant feature instead of something that is taken for granted.

"And were done." I love his content. It is therapeutic to view and enjoyable to see someone devoted to not increasing our landfill volume. Three cheers to you, Mr. Jefferys.

WTH?! Me and my brother were just talking about how cool it would be if you would upload a video fixing a Surface Pro 4 and BAM! You upload it the very next day?! Do you read minds sir?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[cirkulx]

I was waiting for that “And were done!”

[Aldo.flores]

Wow, it’s very interesting see the different ways that companies have engineered its own products, I haven’t seen so many shields in a single device, but way too cool understand how it works

I’ve had a surface pro 4 for years and never noticed the SD-card slot!

[zanecolenso]

im glad about the upgradeability for the new surface, what we need now is sodimm slots and a desktop cpu socket with accessories desinged to add watercooling like a thin ass radiator and thin tubing with thin ass fans

I remember back when Hugh had this ariana mouse pad where he used to do his tiny gadget repairs / upgrades. You've come a really long way. Keep up the good work!

[noahanderson]

This is the first time Hugh repair a Microsoft Surface, Good job!🎉

[TheSpotify]

Yay! Glad to see that someone has repaired one of these unrepairable devices!
Only problem is... what happens when the battery eventually fails, as it will do at some point? Those batteries are glued in like no tomorrow!
P.S. I have a Surface Pro 3 myself and that is a great device, shame about the lack of repairability though.

You are MAGIC, Hugh, you are just what the customer needs for repairing hard-ware and soft-ware, kind regards.

Microsoft: anti-repair -> repair friendly
Samsung: meh -> meh
Apple: repair friendly -> anti-repair

[nighttrash]

For a year at this point, I have been looking forward to Saturday afternoons at work cuz when I’m on my break, your uploads are always between 15 minutes to an hour old. Thaks for giving me something to look forward to 🙏🙏
