Acer TravelMate P4 (TMP413-51) review – compact and snappy

Disassembly, Upgrade options, and Maintenance

To open the device, you need to undo 9 Torx-head screws. After that, pry the panel with a plastic tool, starting from the front, and then work your way around the other sides.

Here’s how the bottom plate looks on the inside.

The battery is a 53Wh variant (you can also opt for an optional 56Wh model). If you want to take it out, pull out the connector from the motherboard and undo the two Philips-head screws that are holding the unit to the chassis. The capacity is enough for 12 hours and 30 minutes of Web browsing, or 9 hours and 5 minutes of video playback.

Sadly, the memory is soldered. On the bright side, you get up to 32GB of LPDDR5-4800MHz RAM in dual-channel mode which sounds future-proof. The only thing that we can do here is to have a look at the memory modules.

Storage-wise, you can rely on a single M.2 slot compatible with 2280 Gen 4 SSDs.

The cooling is simple. It has one fan, a single heat pipe, a heat sink, and a heat spreader.
