Tips on opening back panel

I own an acer swift 3 SF314-55g and it has an annoying back panel to open as its too tight and there are no gaps to work with. Is there a trick to opening it or is it not even design to be opened?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

My Swift 1 has the same problem. I just used a jimmy and worked my way up in size until I could fit a pick in there. Then I worked the pick around the border undoing the clips holding the backplate in place.

Just remove all 10 screws. Don’t worry because there are no cables attached to the panel so you can simply remove the back panel.

It takes a lot of prying but once you get something in the gap it is easy from there.
