The Samsung Galaxy F56, launched in May 2025, is turning heads — not just for its specs or price, but for how easily it can be taken apart. A new teardown video gives us a look inside the mid-range phone and shows that Samsung might finally be getting serious about long-term repairability.
On July 22, YouTube channel PBKreviews shared a detailed disassembly of the Galaxy F56 5G. The process kicks off with prying off the glass back, which is held in place by adhesive — fairly standard these days. From there, a handful of Phillips screws are removed to reveal the phone’s internals. What stands out is the clean layout and modular design: a plastic frame, protective rubber gaskets around ports, and a large 6,000mAh battery that’s relatively easy to remove despite the adhesive.
Inside, the F56 is powered by Samsung’s own Exynos 1480 chip and sports a 6.74-inch Super AMOLED+ display. Thanks to its repair-friendly build, the phone earned a strong 9/10 repairability score — one of the best ratings for a Samsung phone in this segment.
PBKreviews praised the phone’s easy battery replacement, accessible charging port, and good availability of spare parts. However, it did lose minor points in two areas: internal organization (some clutter made parts slightly harder to reach) and screen repairs, which require extra care to avoid damage — a common issue in AMOLED phones. These two areas each scored 1.5 out of 2.
At just 7.2mm thick, with Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection, the Galaxy F56 manages to balance durability with repairability — a rare combo in the mid-range space. Priced around ₹29,999 (~$300) for the 8GB/256GB model, it also promises six years of software support, making ease of repair a key long-term advantage.
With the EU pushing brands toward user-replaceable batteries, Samsung’s move with the F56 could be a sign of things to come. Curious to see the phone opened up? You can watch the full teardown on YouTube.
