 Hello, this is Nick from Laptop Media, and today we will show you how to open the Acer Aspire 7, A71576G. In order to open the laptop, you need to unscrew 11 Phillips head screws. The top two are captive so they will slightly lift the panel up. That's a good starting point for popping the plate with a plastic tool. Please remember, it would be of great help to us if you just hit the like button and subscribe to our channel. That would motivate us to make even more and better videos for you. The battery isn't fixed with screws to the base, but there is a rubber element on the panel that isn't allowing the battery to move around, and it is securing the unit to stay in place. The capacity of the battery is 54.6 watt hours, which is enough for 9 hours and 5 minutes of web browsing, or 7 hours and 9 minutes of video playback. If you want to take out the unit, you have to unplug the connector from the main board and then you can remove the battery. The upgrade options look good. There are two Sodims that can handle up to 32GB of DDR4, 3200 MHz memory in dual-channel mode. For storage, there are two M.2 slots. One of them is compatible with Gen4 SSDs, while the other can handle Gen3 NVMe's. The cooling seems good for such a device. It comprises two heat pipes shared between the CPU and the GPU, and there is a third one that is dedicated to the graphics card. We can also see two fans, two heat spreaders, and a couple of heat sinks.
