Ledger Flex (teardown pics inside).

Hey guys. I bought mine while living in in the EU direct from France and it arrived from France a few days later. That was probably around early 2025.

I figured it’s clean but I’ll sleep better at night being sure that it’s clean. So I ripped it open and snapped some pics for you.

The thing is quite packed on the inside. The back cover is glued on with some special double sided tape around the housing. Not the easiest one to open up but certainly possible. Opening one up WILL leave some marks on the aluminium (?) case. There is a little notch on the left side of it looking down. A small flathead screwdriver can be used to pry it up and then a thin piece of plastic to work around it. Be warned, you wanna pry it open from the OPPOSITE end to open it, not the end with the notch on it.

There is little room on the inside for someone to slap another board in there. Possible, but it would take more mental gymnastics than other Ledgers. This thing wouldn’t be my first pick for rigging for sure!

What did this world come to? Opening hardware wallets to verify hardware integrity is now expected of us?! Damn you Ledger! A MITM hack on the screen was SO preventable! Oldest attack vector in the book! Why hack the software that can be updated when you can hack the hardware… Pretty slick!

Anyway, enjoy the pics! 🙂
