DIY Asus ZenFone 3 Zoom Battery Replacement Guide

Duration: 45 minutes

Steps: 7 Steps

Ready to give your Zenfone 3 a little battery boost? This guide will walk you through replacing that tired battery, especially if it’s been feeling under the weather, losing charge faster than you can say ‘charge me up’, or just not holding up like it used to. Grab your tweezers, Torx T2 screwdriver, prying tool, and Phillips #00 screwdriver, and let’s get started on this battery adventure! If you find yourself in a pickle, you can always schedule a repair.

Step 1

– Grab a trusty pair of tweezers and gently pull out the SIM card tray. Once it’s free, give it a little wave goodbye and set it aside for now.

Step 2

– Grab your Torx T2 screwdriver and carefully unscrew the two 2 mm screws.

Step 3

You’ll see a thin film holding the two pieces together. Don’t worry about removing it! Just gently fold the pieces apart, making sure the inside faces up.

– Gently slip a prying tool in between the screen and the phone’s metal back at the bottom. It’s your ticket to freeing the backing from the phone!

Step 4

– Alright, let’s get those screws out! Using your trusty Phillips #00 screwdriver, give those two little 3 mm screws on the silver band at the top of the battery a little twist and pop that band right off. Easy peasy!

Step 7

– Gently pry open and pop out the battery like a pro!

Success!

Now it’s time to put everything back together—just retrace your steps like a pro!

If you hit a snag, no worries! If you need help, you can always schedule a repair.
