Frequently Asked Questions
Can I replace my Google Pixel battery myself?
Yes, you can replace your Pixel battery yourself. iFixit provides free step-by-step repair guides and sells DIY Battery Fix Kits for every Pixel. These kits include all the necessary tools and parts to replace your battery.
iFixit's kits include genuine, OEM parts for Pixel 2 and all later models.
The repair process generally involves handling adhesive, screws, the fragile screen, and connectors, and is relatively straightforward, for anyone who is patient and careful. Although Google utilizes an "open from the back design" which allows fixers to avoid removing screen in the Pixel 9 series, Google also secures the battery with plenty of adhesive, which causes battery replacements to require even more patience and Isopropyl Alcohol than older models.
