Easy to open and service
Notebookcheck reports that the Gen 5 keeps the X13 Gen 4 design unchanged. In its Gen 4 review, the bottom cover came off after loosening five captive screws. The M.2 2280 SSD and WWAN card are modular, the screwed-in battery is easy to replace and the fan can be cleaned. The keyboard is not user-replaceable.
