1. Remove the bottom plate

Pretty much in a similar fashion to the ZenBook 14 UX425, you need to remove the back feet to access the last two Torx-head screws. After you undo all of them, you can pry the bottom panel with a plastic tool.

2. Battery

Thankfully, the battery pack inside of this machine is huge. It has a capacity of 67Wh.

3. Memory and storage

Unfortunately, upgradability is one of the areas hindered by the slim chassis. All of this laptop’s memory is soldered to the motherboard, and you can get either 8GB or 16GB of LPDDR4X RAM. Storage-wise, you get one M.2 PCIe x4 slot.
