Words for the overall rating: from 8.0 excellentfrom 6.5 strongfrom 5.0 solidfrom 3.5 modestlow

• With equal overall ratings, the higher repairability index comes first, then the newer model (market start), then the name.
• Unusual figures marked “!” count at the category’s typical value, never more.
• Where class and index do not match, the index counts at most up to the limit of the registered class.
• A missing figure counts as 0 points.
• “!” next to a value: battery life below 5 or above 300 hours, more than 15 years of updates or 5,000 or more charge cycles. Values unchanged, last when sorting by that value.
• For 48 of 1,075 models, class and index do not match under the thresholds of Regulation (EU) 2023/1669, Annex II (“!” next to the class); both values are shown unchanged.

Our own editorial rating with a disclosed method, not the official class from the energy label. The values come from the suppliers in EPREL (European Commission), who are solely responsible for them; the Commission does not endorse the ranking.

How we choose the favourites

• Favourites come only from devices with their own device page (confirmed sales name or well-known consumer brand), and each is from a different brand.
• Our favourite: the highest overall rating.
• Best for battery replacement: the highest overall rating among devices whose battery you can replace yourself, according to the supplier.
• Longest updates: the most years of software updates among devices with an overall rating of 5 or more; on a tie, the higher overall rating.
• If a rule drops out, the next one applies: longest battery life, then most charge cycles, each among devices with an overall rating of 5 or more.
• After the favourite, the first two rules that find a suitable device apply. A rule drops out if it applies equally to every device on the page. If a rule finds no suitable device, its card is left out, so fewer than three favourites may appear. On topic and brand pages, the rules apply to the filtered list; on brand pages without the different-brand condition. Nobody can buy a place as a favourite.

Icons in the list: green means at least the typical value in the category (median), grey means below. Our own calculation from the data; the values themselves are unchanged.

For sellers

If you sell smartphones to EU consumers, show the repairability class on the product page before purchase (Article 6(1)(u) of Directive 2011/83/EU). For a single model, the EPREL lookup finds it. The Shopify app takes class and index for each product from EPREL.
