Less repairable is only superior for Logitech's bottom line. If it's reparable, less people will replace their battery operated devices.

They can't make devices that have replaceable battery's that are not safe.

If it can't be repaired, people discard old and buy a new device. That's their logic, really.

“Mouse switches means you have to open up the whole mouse, and you’re most likely going to break something,” he says.

I've opened mouse before, and cleaned switches, and got extra life out of my them. It was easy. Only hurdle are those that are manufacturer made.

It is to me. It's very unbelievable. But we're not going to convince one another, so I'll just wait until enough people have the bloody broken fingernails to prove it.

Seems like more evidence they can come apart relatively easily.

The corner edges of that reader look beat up. That is a bit much expecting the case to survive hard usage. A great reason for a protective cover

The back came off from them removing their clear cover. I don't think it looks particularly beat up, it's just semi-open and obscured by the clear case. The device is like possibly a week or two old.
