LG G5: change battery - how it works

The LG G5 - unlike many other modern smartphones - can still change the battery. In this practical tip, we will tell you how to do this.

LG G5: change battery

In principle, changing the battery is very easy.

• With its "magic slot", LG enables modules to be attached to its flagship.
• Each time the module is changed, the battery must be plugged into the new module so that the device can be supplied with power again.
• First, you need to remove the bottom cover of the smartphone.
• To do this, hold down a switch on the lower left edge of the device and simultaneously pull the lower part of the smartphone down.
• The battery is also attached to this. Remove it by simply pulling it up.
• When inserting the new battery, you have to make sure that the markings on the battery and the lower part of the smartphone are on top of each other and that the battery is not attached upside down, ie with the "LG" lettering facing up, on the holder.
• Finally, slide the base with the battery on it back into the smartphone.
• Since the battery has been removed in the meantime, you must restart the device.
