Can you easily disassemble the Samsung Galaxy S5?

  I have a Samsung XCover Pro - it has a removable back, physical buttons, an impressive replaceable battery, a headphone jack... and an IP68 rating. It's probably not as repairable as the the fairphone, but clearly it's possible to be waterproof with a removable back/battery and a jack.

    I'd imagine a little glue helps ;)

  It was very easy to take apart as it just used same size Philips screws. Replacing cracked glass was hard as you had to soften glue and required a uv curing glue to attach the replacement, but would assume the fairphone treats the digitizer screen and front glass as a single replacement assembly also.
