Google needs to Change this NOW

I’m tired of waiting for google to make the right choice.
Vote with your wallet.
No more google phones until the battery can be removed easily.

  1. seriously, the 7 years of updates and iFixIt support etc are so much less meaningful when the battery isn't user replaceable, and very risky/difficult to have replaced at a service center even. and yes, prohibitive for recycling

  2. What even is the point of glueing the batterry? It's not like it can drop out with backplate on

  3. Never buy any pixel. Pixel sucks. I had buyer's remorse a week after buying it.

  6. Further, Google phones often ship with known hardware issues. Usually with the screen. The 5a has a funny issue with the power button too, though. Where you'll think you're in a boot loop, but the power button is actually stuck down.

  7. "Most garbage battery on the planet" & "I don't feel like explodiing today"! Jerry on Google Pixel 9.8: 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

  9. Ever since Google started making the pixel, it has always had the worst hardware in class. Really don’t understand why anybody buys them at all.

  10. Why would I care about how they attach the battery? Almost nobody replaces their battery, they just get a new phone because the phone is outdated by the time it needs replaced. Even if they do replace the battery, we just take it somewhere.

  13. Google once again showing off why they removed their "Don't be evil" slogan.

    'No repairing, only buy new'
    – Google

  16. This battery removal system gives me flashbacks from replacing the screen on my Motorola moto g⁸ power. And not good flashbacks.

  18. If "Garbanzo Beans" actually meant what it sounds like, it would be used for this amount of effort and alcohol hungry battery removal procedure.

  19. ATTN: ANY/ALL phone manufacturers…
    You D O N O T N E E D T O 'WELD' your batteries into your phones !!!
    SOME stickiness IS ENOUGH to hold the batteries in place! 🤨😒

  20. The engineer team lead asked ”Does it work?” Instead of ”Is it good?”
