iFixit disassembles the Nokia N8. The folks over at iFixit have gotten their hands dirty disassembling Nokia’s latest N8 smartphone. Final verdict: 8 out of 10 for repairability. That arbitrary number is based on how many replaceable parts are included in a given device, and it turns out that most of the N8′s innards are pretty serviceable – battery, glass panel, AMOLED, and all. Some interesting notes from the teardown: Both cameras are non-removable. The battery can be replaced by removing two screws. Nokia added some thermal heat pads above the RAM, flash memory, and GPU chips. The N8 uses the same touch-screen controller as the Microsoft Kin Two and Blackberry Torch.
