How do you disassemble the Jabra Speak 710?
Trying to take the Jabra Speak 710 apart. I see screws on the underlip of the device, but can not access these screws. Has anyone taken this device apart? Or something similar that could help? Thanks!
I opened my Jabra Speak 710 for a necessary battery replacement, but I can easily take pictures of anything else if anyone needs them. I tore apart the casing with a vengeance, as the device was inoperable anyway. Turns out most of the time I spent was wasted going in the wrong way, and my initial destructive entry was a dead end; I was reminded the lesson I learned early on laptops “if you feel like you’re using too much force, you probably are and you’re probably doing it wrong”.
Tools necessary:
Time: ~20 minutes
Parts: 2x AHB682828HPA 3.8v 530mah 2.1Wh Li-ion batteries (See comments for discussion)
Disclaimer:
Precautions:
Teardown:
1) Reference “before” picture of the Jabra Speak 710. The first step is to remove the front silver plate, which is held in place with double sided tape.
2) You’ll need to wedge a thin pry tool or knife just under the plate, between the silver metal plate and black plastic housing. If you want to reduce the risk of noticeable scratches to the edges of the face plate you should try using a plastic pry tool first. The adhesive is just on the outer edge, about 4mm.
3) After removing the silver front speaker plate, 4 screws (T6) are accessible. These screws hold the bottom/back part of the chassis assembly.
4) Once the four screws have been removed, the bottom/back removes easily, which provides access to the remaining 8 screws (T9) that hold the mid and top/front of the chassis together. You can ignore my mangled back/bottom, a casualty of discovery.
5) The chassis opens up to reveal two batteries, each connected by three wires. The underside of the batteries has the google-able model number AHB682828HPA (thanks Mike Riebesehl) and the battery specs 3.8v 530mah.
At this point you can desolder the battery (take note of the wire colors and order), but first please read through the "Precautions" and "Disclaimer" listed earlier. You can use a thin, flat, wide, plastic pry tool to get under the battery if it is strongly adhered to the PCB. Metal pry tools can pierce a battery and cause a runaway fire.
When I authored this guide these batteries were hard to find, but as of March 2024 their part numbers and the Jabra model are searchable via Aliexpress. Please share your experiences with any specific third party batteries you choose to order (e.g. "working well after X months" or "almost burned down my house" are very helpful to the whole community)

Woohoo! This is Awesome. I was unable to get back to this, so Thanks Colin for the detailed answer.
I will now proceed to disassemble one of my units and will report back in difference in findings.
Perfect! Thank you, I was able to get inside.
Thanks for sharing those information for tear down the 710, great help!
I think I can buy the silver plate to replace the old one.
Very interesting thanks for the info I am in the same 710 dead batt boat. The battery was made by https://www.synst.com.tw
I found this test by them and sent an inquiry as to a replacement. I am not sure what the White wire is for all other similar Li-Po only have a + & -
The white wire would most likely be for a thermistor (Temperature sensor)
I also ended up here as I had a set of batteries die (and puff up). The original batteries are made by Synergy Taiwan under their Advanced Hybrid line (AHB). Original batteries are part # AHB682828 - 2.1watt hour or 550mAh. This means it is a lithium polymer battery, 6.8mm thickness, 28x28mm in dimension. Most lipo packs like these are coded similar so you can find any other generic pack 27mm square or smaller, and 6.8mm or thinner. The extra wire is a thermistor.

I have this problem too. Tried to tear the rack away from the case. However, it is firmly attached. Has anyone solved this problem?

I called Jabra Support. When asked how to take the case apart for this purpose, I was told that the batteries were not meant to be replaced. Instead I was offered a 40% discount on the price of replacement 710s which happen to be out of the 2-year warranty. This offer is good for 7 days, so I intend to perform some destructive reverse engineering on one unit. Will post results here.

How did it go, @Randy Isbell? I need to open my unit as well.
