Sure! Here’s a rewritten version of the article:

So, I stumbled on this wild teardown video the other day—yeah, one of those where they rip apart the latest gadgets just for kicks. This time, it was the Nintendo Switch 2 on the chopping block. YouTube’s JerryRigEverything—ever heard of him?—dives right into the guts of the thing, and the host, Zack Nelson, seemed pretty pumped about it all.
Okay, here’s the thing. The insides of this console are like, super modular. You’ve got your Joy-Con 2 sticks, headphone jack—all that jazz just sitting there, looking easy to mess with. Now, it’s not all sunshine and roses because there’s talk about jacked-up repair costs. Apparently, some of these parts cost a bit more to replace. But hey, if you’ve got a Phillips and one of those weird tri-point screwdrivers, you’re all set for a DIY session at home. Zack even managed to slap it back together without a hitch—color me impressed.
Now, about the batteries—ugh. Unlike the good ol’ first-gen Switch, these babies are glued down tight. Think you’ll need boats of alcohol and some serious muscle to pry them out. Plus, the game card slot and those USB-C ports? Totally not modular. Mess one up, and it’s a full motherboard swap. Yikes, unless soldering’s your jam.
Oh, and you might find this cool—or maybe not—but Zack also gave us a lowdown on the Switch 2’s screen toughness. First, he peeled off that screen protector. Nintendo says it’s there to prevent glass shattering everywhere, kinda like laminated car windows. Anyway, Zack—being Zack—grabbed some big ol’ pliers (you know, the type plumbers might wield) and went to town on the screen. Crazy, right? It took over 50 wallops for the screen to finally call it quits and shatter. Oddly enough, even after the display bit the dust, a quick reset got the thing running. Talk about a durable piece of tech! But, you know, maybe chill with the rage quits—unless you’re ready to risk an avalanche of glass shards.
So yeah, that’s what went down. If you’re curious for more offbeat tech tales—or just feel like keeping up with our brand of messy gadget news—follow Tom’s Hardware on Google News. Hit that follow button while you’re at it. Catch you later!
