Battery replaceable?

[hedehede81]

Hello guys,

I have been looking into buying a Tab Pro S, but couldnt find any teardowns. Is the teardown end user friendly, or lots of glue like surface pro?

Being able to change the battery myself is very important for me, I dont want to get stranded with half battery life 2 years later. Many thanks for any info.

Hi, have you tried the ifixit site?
I find this site good for teardowns.

Yeah, I checked that site before, unfortunately no teardowns for Tab Pro S. I had a good look at the unit at the retailer yesterday, it looked to me like the back cover (plastic) is held by glue and might be opened with some heat persuasion and prying. Not entirely sure though. It would really be nice to have some teardowns or info.
