If you are interested in repairing Surface Laptop SE, Microsoft's latest teardown video should help you do it at this point. The video, posted on the Microsoft Surface YouTube channel, shows customers how they can completely disassemble the laptop to make any necessary repairs to the faulty device.

The Surface Notebook SE was announced late last year, and it is the first Surface device designed for K-8 students (for those who don’t know, K-8 means kindergarten through eighth grade). This is a low-end budget laptop running Windows 11 SE, a watered-down version of Windows 11 for such devices.

Usually, Surface devices receive quite a bit of criticism for their low repairability, but with the Surface Laptop SE being designed for schools, Microsoft is taking the matter much more seriously. The teardown video shows how to open the Surface Laptop SE using just a couple of screwdrivers (Torx T6 and Philips PH0) and without worrying about glued components (although some parts do have tape). There aren't even any screws underneath the rubber feet, so everything is ready and easy to use right away.

However, not everything is fungible. The processor, RAM, and storage are all soldered onto the motherboard, so you can't replace them individually. However, the motherboard itself is removable if you need to replace the entire motherboard. You can also remove the speakers, power connector, battery, and display assembly to access all of them. Microsoft doesn't show you how to put the components back into place, but presumably all you need to do is follow the instructions in reverse order.

While Microsoft has received a lot of criticism for how difficult it is to repair Surface devices, the company seems interested in changing that, at least to some degree. Recently, Microsoft partnered with iFixit to distribute some essential repair tools for Surface Laptop and Surface Pro devices to a wider network of third-party repair providers.

Of course, this extended teardown video is only available for the Surface Laptop SE, and that's because it's aimed at schools, potentially allowing IT departments to be ready to perform fixes rather than shipping the laptop to Microsoft every time it's needed Make repairs. Most average consumers will have little demand for this video because they are unlikely to have the device at home.
