Philips is great for what it's designed to do, strip out.

But for electronics I basically never want that behavior.

I've stripped out every sort of head. It isn't the heads fault really. Lack of thread treatment and/or correct application of torque is the cause and can happen to any head.

So in essence, if you EVER think you might need to disassemble something, you shouldn't use Philips.

And even then, torque screwdrivers are not that expensive
