Turn the tablet so the back is facing up.
Remove the battery covers by sliding the covers towards the sides and away from the center of the device.

Use a small plastic opening tool to separate the colored front cover from the white rear cover of the device.
With one hand on the front cover and one hand on the rear cover, start from the bottom of the device and pull the pieces apart.
Once only the top edge remains connected, pull the rear cover backwards away from the front cover and upwards towards the top of the device. This should release the last remaining tabs holding the pieces front and rear cover together.
The most stubborn tabs holding the front and rear together are along the top edge of the tablet around the game cartridge slot. This will most likely be the last area that separates, and it may require a moderate amount of force.

Separate the motherboard from the back side of the device by detaching the black and red wire connection from the back cover.
The two pieces that hold the pen in place will become loose. Remove and set aside for reassembly.

Use an opening tool to lift up the camera body.
Prying out the camera body requires a little force, however excessive force can damage other components in the motherboard.
