Right to Repair

Score breakdown

Why this grade

PIRG ranks Asus the #1 laptop brand for repairability three years running (A- in 2025, B+ in 2026), driven by strong France-index disassembly/parts/documentation scores; Asus also has few software locks. However, no Asus laptop is on iFixit's curated score list and Asus is less open with full schematics than Dell or Lenovo, so per-model corroboration is thinner. Graded conservatively at high-C (one notch below PIRG's B+) given the equal-weighted rubric and limited per-model teardown data.
