This is a quick guide on how to open up the NVIDIA SHIELD Tablet (2014). I couldn't find one, so I figured I write one.
The SHIELD closed back up even easier than it opened. The plastic tabs snap easily back into place and hold the tablet together as if it were never even opened. Still, you need to be carefull around the camera area and make sure the ribbon cabling to the device glued to the back isn't caught in the process.
I'll be opening it back up again when I attempt to install my Qi coil.
