1. Remove the bottom plate
To take this notebook apart, you need to remove its bottom panel. You can do that by undoing four Phillips-head screws, two of which are hidden beneath the rear rubber feet. Then, pry the panel with a plastic tool.
2. Battery
Here, the battery has a capacity of 70Wh.
3. Мemory and storage
Expectedly, the memory of this notebook is soldered to its motherboard. On the other hand, there is an M.2 PCIe x4 slot for storage upgrades.

Despite the small size of the laptop, we see a cooling solution with two heat pipes and a rather long heat sink.

Hello, great write up.. One question: When you guys had the laptop, in performance mode when you manually select the fan to run in boost cooler mode. Did you guys hear like a quick 1 second buz/click in the fans as they initiated rotation?
Basically, select boost cooler mode, it clicks/buzzes for 1 second and fans come on top max speed.
I’m just wondering if there is something wrong with mine or its normal for this model.
Thanks.
