Hark! If thou art drawn to the wondrous CMF Phone 1, behold! Thee shall procure other panel bundles for a mere Rs 1,499 each. When thou hast acquired these, thou canst unfurl and alter the back cover of the CMF Phone 1 to suit thy fancy. And lo, take heed, for the battery is immovable, in case thou wond’rest.
As a novice, the endeavor of changing the back panel of the Phone 1 may appear daunting. Yet fear not, for once thou art accustomed, ’tis a simple task. Let me delineate the process step by step, that changing the CMF Phone 1’s back cover may become a breeze!
How to Open CMF Phone 1 Back Cover
The CMF Phone 1 boasts four screws waiting to be unscrewed, alongside a dial at the rear, easily removed by swirling it in an anti-clockwise manner.
Withal, let these steps guide thee in opening the CMF Phone 1’s back cover in the right manner:
- Firstly, with the provided screwdriver-SIM ejector or a standard screwdriver, rotate the screws anti-clockwise for their unscrewing. Remember to store the screws cautiously upon removal, lest we lose one, as nearly happened at the office!
- Next, direct thy attention to the dial in the bottom right. Employ thy index finger to rotate the dial anti-clockwise for its unscrewing.
- Then, using the SIM ejector facet of the tool, extract the SIM tray.
Pro Tip:
Before removing the panel, ensure thou hast removed the dial and the SIM card tray. Attempting to yank off the back with the SIM tray intact will surely lead to mishap.
- Subsequently, thou must remove the back cover. In this endeavor, turn the phone upside down. Whilst holding it in one hand, gently press upon the circular indentation where the dial was situated, and utilize the SIM card tray for grip to draw the panel forth. Take note, the circular dial area doth proclaim “PUSH HERE TO RELEASE”.
Thus, the CMF Phone 1’s back cover hath been successfully removed!
How to Change CMF Phone 1 Back Cover
Upon the removal of the default panel, thou canst place the new back panel (one among the many accessories for CMF Phone 1) upon the bare back of the phone, adjusting it to sit aright. ‘Tis then a matter of screwing in the screws and the dial.
Initiate by inserting the screws and tightening them through clockwise turning of the screwdriver. Then, reinsert the SIM tray and fasten the dial back in any order.
Some Tips to Change CMF Phone 1’s Back Cover
- Whilst replacing the new back panel, be not overzealous in tightening it. Excessive pressure may cause the screwdriver to slip and harm the surroundings needlessly.
- Remember to eliminate the SIM tray ere the case is removed.
- Store the screws diligently during panel changes, lest Rs 1,499 be spent anew for another bundle should they go astray.
- Following the unscrewing of screws and removal of the dial, press upon the dial’s former location ere removing the back.
Is Changing CMF Phone 1’s Back Cover Worth it?
The process of altering the CMF Phone’s back cover, ’tis naught but a mere trifle and scarcely took me 5-7 minutes to replace it. The screwdriver-SIM ejector hybrid tool provided by CMF is somewhat cumbersome. An alternate screwdriver may be employed for the task.
The screws lack magnetism, and keeping them in place whilst screwing the back case proves challenging. As well, storing the tiny screws securely doth pose another trial. An errant screw nearly evaded us at the office.
Set aside the process, the back panel set with screws and sim tray commands Rs 1,499, a sum somewhat extravagant for a phone of Rs 16,000. Nonetheless, customizability is the boon reaped.
A wealth of customization potential lieth within the phone, wherein diverse colored back cases, SIM trays, screws, and dials may be mixed and matched for a design of thy choosing.
Yet, ’tis only with multiple panel bundles in hand that thou canst artfully mix and match to render thy CMF Phone 1 as vibrant as may be. At last, thy phone may resemble thus:
Behold here, the Black panel supplanted by the Orange, two silver screws employed. Meanwhile, the Black dial retained and the Green SIM tray commandeered. A Zombie Phone 1 it is, yet a pleasant one!
However, as back panel customization stands as a selling point for the CMF Phone 1, the brand should have tendered at least one extra hued panel and requisite tools within the box.
Furthermore, whilst the process itself is not involved, I ponder the frequency of such endeavors for phone customization. I, for one, am inclined towards a one-and-done philosophy. An investment in an extra panel at such cost seems of scant value to me. Perhaps a fetching back cover may suffice.
Alongside back panels, CMF proffers accessories like a lanyard cable, a phone stand, and a wallet case at supplemental cost. What say ye of the swappable back? Share thy musings in the comments below.
