Disassembly, Upgrade options, and Maintenance

If you want to open this laptop, you need to undo just four Phillips-head screws. After that, you can start popping the panel starting from the front, then, work your way around the sides and on the back.

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

The battery is a 41Wh variant. The connector is built-in and you have to wear gloves to avoid short circuits while taking out the unit. Before that, you have to undo the five Phillips-head screws that are fixing the battery to the base. The last step is to carefully untangle the speaker cables from the battery housing.The capacity is enough for 8 hours and 20 minutes of Web browsing or 7 hours and 42 minutes of video playback.

There are two SODIMMs for up to 32GB of DDR4-3200 MHz memory in dual-channel mode.

For storage, you get a single M.2 slot compatible with Gen 4 SSDs. There is a thin cooling pad under the preinstalled NVMe.

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