Asus Zenbook UX21e Battery Replacement
Duration: 45 minutes
Steps: 4 Steps
The Asus Zenbook UX21e comes with a battery that’s a breeze to swap. To get started, you’ll need to pop off the back cover and take out the five screws keeping the battery snug in place. Then it’s just a matter of unplugging the battery from the motherboard—easy, right?—and lifting it out like a pro.
Step 1
– Grab your trusty T4 Torx screwdriver and tackle the ten screws holding the bottom cover in place. Once that’s done, slide the bottom cover straight back and off—it’s like unwrapping a surprise, only with fewer ribbons!
– Heads-up: we’ve got two screw sizes in the mix. Eight are 3mm, and two are longer at 5mm. Keep track of those 5mm screws—they’re VIPs and belong in the two center holes along the back edge.
