How to Replace the Huawei Nexus 6P Battery in 8 Steps

Together released with LG Nexus 5X, the Huawei Nexus 6P is targeting for people who want to enjoy bigger screen and better performance. However, every coin has two sides, a bigger screen, and better performance means the device will consume more energy. For Lithium battery, its full charging cycle is around 300 times which means for heavy users, they may need to get their battery replaced after one year of being used to keep the battery life working as usual.

Tools Needed:

• Plastic case opening tool
• Phillips #00 screwdriver
• iSasemi Tool
• Plastic Spudger

Step 1. Power off the Huawei Nexus 6P and then eject the SIM card.

Step 4. Insert the iSasemi Tool to the top glass cover then peel it off. Undo 2 screws holding the middle frame.

 

Step 5. Heat up the rear housing then separate it from the rest of the phone.

 

Step 6. Disconnect the motherboard and daughterboard flex cable, then disconnect the battery connector.

 

Step 7. Insert the iSasemi Tool to release the adhesive attached to the battery then remove the battery.
