# disassembly videos
- iFixit has a [photo guide](https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Samsung+Chromebook+Plus+Battery+Replacement/101916) showing how to open the case and
also how to replace the battery. [This diagram](https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/How+to+disable+touchscreen+on+samsung+chromebook+plus/101905#s191207) (from a
different guide) shows the order to reinstall the back panel
screws for the best alignment results.

sacrifice your webcam in order to do this.
- You can completely remove the monitor cable (the cable that runs
*through* the hinge) from the laptop if you want; then you can
do all the splicing in a much roomier setting with no worries
about damaging other components. The disassembly video above
