My 3xl has been a champ for 2.5 years. Wouldn't mind replacing it with a new one.

Also, the 4a 128gb is $350 .. no wireless charging, not completely waterproof (but probably good enough) and will get updates for another 2.5 years.
Battery replacement is $80 for my 3 XL at ubrakeifix .. though not sure I trust them with such a complicated battery replacement.
My battery life has become abysmal. Otherwise I love my 3 XL
I suppose I backup everything, all the data and keep a copy of what apps I have installed, then turn it over to them.
At this point I don't have much to lose. And then maybe I can make it to the Pixel 7 or 8.
I like how the recent Pixels have lower powered CPUs.. it saves quite a bit of battery life apparently.
Also, stopping charging around 80-85% can increase life of battery by a factor of 2x-3x .. it seems you have to root to get this function though.
It's frustrating that we don't have a simple way to replace the battery in a modern flagship level phone. The hardware has for the most part matured and is on the plateau part of the graph, so why ditch the whole thing just because the battery doesn't hold a charge anymore? Seems like such a waste. I'd trade my IPX whatever rating to be able to just buy a new battery and throw it in (like I used to with my old LG V20)
But it took forever to get OIS and a telephoto lens, after waiting and waiting I picked up an iPhone 11 Pro. This thing takes beautiful pictures, has both a telephoto and wide angle lens, and the battery life is INSANE (compared to the early Pixel and Pixel 2's that were plugged into battery packs whenever I left the house).
There are things I don't like about Apple's controlling OS but I find this is more usable. Again - only my personal experience and opinion.
Pure garbage, and I even gave them a chance after 2 replacements of OGpixel devices, tried the 3.
Nope issues just like the pixel 1 however, had to deal with google for warranty and they are a bunch of untrained unsupervised lazy teleworkers. Talking about can't even get the correct address to send the rma'ed phone right, and refused to be of any help. Bottom of the barrel customer service.
I took the plunge but will cancel order or return if the bootloader is NOT unlockable.
Might be of interest: I ordered & recvd a used Woot Pixel 3 XL 128. IMEI began w/35 (Verizon) and unable to unlock.
Other than my interest in an unlocked phone... this used (2yo phone per blacklist checkers) was in better cosmetic shape than anticipated. (a single 3/8" scratch on screen. Back was fine)
Battery "seems" good per a simple app-test.
What about a battery replacement? These

So if your battery life is shitty due to swelling, I'd give Google support a call.
