1. Remove the bottom plate
This laptop’s bottom panel is held in place by 9 Torx-head screws. After you undo them, you need to pry the panel with a plastic tool. Then, lift it away from the chassis.
2. Battery
It’s good to see that ASUS has integrated a 67Wh battery pack inside of this machine.
3. Мemory and storage
Sadly, but expectedly, the memory is soldered to the motherboard. However, the configurations available include 8 and 16GB of LPDDR4x RAM. Thankfully, the storage can be upgraded via one M.2 PCIe x4 slot.
4. Cooling system
Now, the cooling solution looks pretty typical for a laptop of this class. It has a pretty beefy heat pipe, a heat sink, and a fan, which has a rather slim profile. However, ASUS state that their fan blades have a 3D-curved design, whatever this means.
