1. Remove the bottom plate
To get inside of this device, you first need to remove the stylus out of its garage. Then, undo all 10 Phillips-head screws, and pry the bottom panel with a plastic tool.
2. Battery
Here, we see a battery with a 50Wh capacity. In our tests, it lasted us for more than 11 hours of Web browsing, or 7 hours of video playback. Before you remove it, you need to unplug the battery connector. Then, undo all 4 Phillips-head screws, and take it out of the chassis.
3. Cooling system, memory, and storage
To access the memory, you have to remove a metal shroud. There, you will see a single SODIMM slot, with additional 8 or 16GB soldered to the motherboard. Storage-wise, you get an M.2 PCIe x4 slot.
