Samsung's Galaxy Buds Live — the earbuds that everyone prefers to call Galaxy Beans —020 Archivesgotten the iFixit treatment, meaning they've been torn to the tiniest shreds.
Astonishingly, the folks at iFixit found the BeansBuds can actually be repaired quite easily, which is no small feat for a gadget this minuscule. Inside, the parts are held together with a screw and clever positioning, instead of Samsung just gluing everything in place.
Getting to the battery is a little harder than expected, as you have to move the speaker out of the way, but generally, anyone with just a bit of patience should be able to disassemble and re-assemble the Buds, and the accompanying case, without issues.
Ultimately, they've been awarded a repairability score of 8, which is as good as it gets in the world of earbuds.
