Is it difficult to repair a broken iPhone 6S screen?

● According to iFixit, the iPhone 6S keeps up the decent work, earning 7 out of 10 (10 is the easiest to repair) on the repairability scale. We recommend you replace the whole broken iPhone 6S LCD screen assembly with frame rather than only the glass, for replacing the glass without destroying the display is going to be very difficult. Anyway, the iPhone 6S display assembly with frame is the first part out, simplifying 6S screen repair, but undoing Pentalobe screws still needs the special screwdrivers.
