Introduction

This guide will show you how to remove the battery from your Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra. You may need to replace the battery if it drains too fast or it can no longer charge. A heat gun or hairdryer is needed to open the back panel, which can become hot and potentially damage the phone. Additionally, a spudger is needed to lift and disconnect parts from the phone.

    • Wedge your finger under the bottom ridge of the SD card insert.

    • Pull outwards with your fingers to remove the SD card from the left side of device.

    How do you remove it? (Seems obvious but write for any audience, and say how to do things instead of just what to do)

    • Use a hair dryer to heat each corner of the phone.

    • Alternate heating each corner for a minute to loosen the adhesive binding the back cover to the phone.

    • Don't heat one area for too long; the phone may get damaged from overheating.

    Consider saying “loosen” instead of “soften” so that steps 2 and 3 use the same terms. Somebody may not know that heating the glue will loosen it, and so they will be confused reading “once the adhesive is loosened” in step 3.

    • Press a suction cup on a heated corner of the device.

    • Hold the phone down and gently lift the suction cup to create a small gap.

    • You may hear crunching or popping sounds when you lift up the back cover.

    sure that there is adhesive tape on backcover?

    where should it tape on at the device inside?

    looks more like only plugged together`?

    • Insert your iFixit Opening Tool in the small gap between your phone and the back cover.

    • Lift up on the iFixit Opening Tool and insert your plastic card in the small gap between your phone and the back cover.

    Period missing for first point.

    • Slide your plastic card along the side of your phone to loosen the adhesive.

    • Move the card along the sides of the phone to lift all of the corners.

    Can you clarify what should be repeated in this step?

    • Use the iFixit Opening Tool to remove the flexible orange strip which connects the battery to the motherboard.

    Grammar, consider rewording. “Use the iFixit Opening Tool to remove the flexible orange strip which is connected to the battery from the motherboard” or “Use the iFixit Opening Tool to remove the flexible orange strip which connects the battery to the motherboard” or another alternative depending on your intended meaning.
