Two weeks ago, the company posted a teardown of the entry-level laptop without the Touch Bar, revealing it was quite difficult to repair. As it turns out, the mid-range model is even worse when it comes to disassembling.

Below you can find some MacBook Pro teardown highlights and the repairability score of the model.
