1. Remove the bottom plate
This laptop’s bottom panel is held in place by 5 captive Phillips-head screws. After you undo them, remove the dedicated stylus from its garage, and pry the panel with a plastic tool.
2. Battery
Here, the battery has a capacity of 57Wh. It lasted us for 15 hours of Web browsing, or more than 11 hours of video playback. If you need to remove the battery, you first have to undo 6 Phillips-head screws.
3. Memory and storage
Unsurprisingly, this laptop’s memory is soldered to its motherboard. On the bright side, you can choose from 8, 16, or 32GB of LPDDR4x RAM, working in quad-channel mode. Storage-wise, there is one M.2 PCIe x4 slot, which supports Gen 4 drives.
4. Cooling system
In terms of cooling, you get a pretty simple setup with one heat pipe and two very small fans. Thankfully, the VRMs are cooled by metal plates.
