Need to replace a mic on W880, but not sure if it's soldered to main pcb...
Anyone who can clarify this?...

it's soldered to the mainboard, unfortunately.

You can only remove and resolder with hot air, and it's really hard to do.

I have the same problem....

I just managed to replace it. It wasn't so difficult.
First you have to unsolder the mic on the PCB( I used Gas Butane Torch from B&Q

as I havn't got a Rework Station)
After that I found some old mic laying in my draw from samsung. I soldered it to the PCB using two thick copper wires

ps. If yo damage a track on the PCB you can solder a positive to the capacitor on the other side of the PCB.

Good luck
