The DSi XL measures in at 161 x 91.4 x 21.2 mm and weighs in at a whopping 314 g. That's 45% heavier than the 217 g DSi.

The featured specs of the DSi XL are the twin 4.2" LCD panels.

The back side of the DSi XL. What a surprise! It's made in China.

The full-sized stylus, measuring 10 x 130 mm, takes a little getting used to but fits more comfortably in the hand than its 5 x 90 mm smaller twin.

Remove the two Phillips screws securing the battery door to the outer case of the DSi XL.

Lift battery door off the bottom outer case and remove the battery from its housing.

Both screws remain captive within the battery door.

Nintendo provided quite a hefty upgrade in battery size from 840 mAh in the DSi (Right) to 1050 mAh in the DSi XL (Left).

For all you math haters out there, that's 25% more capacity!

Larger capacity comes with the cost of more weight. The XL's battery weighs 23 g compared to the 19 g DSi battery.

A total of seven Phillips screws are all that stand in the way between us and the innards of the DSi XL.

Keep track of each screw's location because they have different lengths.

After a bit of careful prying, the lower case comes off without a hassle.

An orange ribbon remains connected to both cases. Pry with care to prevent any damage to this connector.
