Einleitung

Replacing the battery of a Dell XPS 15 9510 laptop is a straightforward task requiring only a few tools. The new battery constitutes nearly all of the cost of this repair, so if you are planning to order a replacement battery for this or any other laptop, it may be wise to remove the back panel of the laptop to ensure that the one you are ordering matches the existing one.

If the battery you are replacing is swollen, be sure to take appropriate precautions.

The metal case of the XPS 15 9510 is extremely sharp, so be careful not to run your fingers along the edge when disassembling the laptop.
Wedge the case apart with a nylon spudger.
If the plastic one isn't possible to insert, use the metal spudger to carefully create a small gap first.
Once the spudger is inserted, slide it along each side of the laptop
