Highlights iPad Pro (2025) teardown reveals extreme difficulty in repairing as the thin design makes internal access risky and delicate. Components like the USB-C port, cameras, and speakers are individually replaceable, while battery replacement is tough due to strong adhesives and screen fragility. iFixit rated it 5/10 for repairability.

(Credit - iFixit) Apple’s latest iPad Pro (2025) powered by the M5 chip has already gone under the screwdriver after its launch earlier this month. Yes, you guessed it right. Thanks to a detailed teardown by iFixit, we have an inside look at the latest device. The teardown focuses on the 13-inch model with just 5.1mm thickness, a design marvel that also makes it one of Apple’s most difficult devices to repair. So, without further ado, let’s see what the teardown reveals. M5 Powered iPad Pro (2025) Teardown According to iFixit, the extreme thinness of the new iPad Pro leaves almost no internal space to work with. The video shows how every component is packed tightly together and mounted flush against the display. The only way to access the internal components is by carefully removing the screen, which is a risky and delicate process. Despite Apple’s recent move to expand its Self Service Repair program to include iPads, the iPad Pro (2025) remains “one of the least repairable devices” the company has ever made. Detaching the display without cracking it is extremely challenging, though Apple now provides official repair manuals, parts, and tools to make the process somewhat more manageable.

The display separated from the frame using adhesive strips. The adhesive is strong and takes time to remove safely, as the display can easily shatter during disassembly. To replace the two battery cells, a total of ten adhesive strips must be pulled out. The iPad Pro is fairly modular with several components like the USB-C port, cameras, ambient light sensor, LiDAR scanner, and speakers. Notably, all can be replaced individually. Apple also uses two different screw types and its self-service store offers the correct tools and guides. Replacement parts are expected to be available soon through the same channel. Ultimately, iFixit awarded the 13-inch iPad Pro (2025) a repairability score of 5 out of 10, where 0 is the hardest to repair and 10 is the easiest. The biggest challenge lies in the battery replacement, since accessing it requires removing the fragile screen first. However, once inside, most other components are relatively straightforward to replace. Lastly, the teardown also confirms that apart from the upgraded M5 chip, Apple hasn’t made any major internal design changes compared to the previous generation iPad Pro.
