Right to Repair

Score breakdown

Why this grade

iFixit scored the Galaxy Tab S3 = 4/10 (front and back both glued) and rated the Tab S8 only 'average'; tablets carry the same adhesive penalty as Samsung phones. Samsung runs an official Self-Repair program with iFixit selling genuine parts (display, battery, charging port) plus step-by-step guides for tablets including Tab S7+ and the Tab S9 series, which lifts parts and manual availability. Coverage gaps remain: newer Tab S10/S11 are not yet in the self-repair program. Less aggressive parts-pairing than Apple but genuine-part verification exists.
