While some people like to customize their devices with cases and stickers – like this Iron Man-themed Samsung Galaxy Note 4 - others like to make hardware modifications to their devices. Someone on Reddit has had the unique idea of removing the coloured backing of their Samsung Galaxy Note 5, leaving just a transparent back cover that reveals the innards of the device to the world.
Of course, there are a few tricks to know in case you want to attempt the same feat: since the back of the Note 5 is non-removable, the poster had to heat up the back of the device with a heat gun, have something like a suction cup to get a good grip and pull the back cover off, and then scraping off the inside of the back cover with a razor blade. It sounds simple, but it’s probably not for the faint-hearted, especially for those who don’t like doing things to devices that aren’t intended design – plus, taking to your super-expensive smartphone with a heat gun isn’t exactly everyone’s cup of tea. Then again, we’d love to know if any of you try this and have success.
