Follow this guide to replace a dead or worn‑out battery in your Google Pixel 10 Pro.
All smartphone batteries have limited lifespans. If your phone doesn't hold a charge or dies unexpectedly, it might be time to replace the battery.
If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
You'll need replacement back glass adhesive to complete this repair.
Note: Any repair can compromise the water resistance of your phone. Retaining water resistance after the repair depends on how accurately the new adhesives are applied and how clean the surfaces are.
