Pixel 10 Pro XL Teardown Reveals Google’s Push Toward Repairability

Disassembling the Pixel 10 Pro XL

Disassembling the Pixel 10 Pro XL might not be as heavy and serious as it sounds the moment you hear it because it speaks of Google in a lightweighted way “focus more on repairability”.

Taking a Step Further Pawishing the Pixel 10 Pro XL

As noted earlier, Google seems to be on a stride hoping to address the extremly heavy and vital part of consumer complaints, which seems to be “the complication of the fixing of the phone”.

In terms of ease of fixing, the ease of battery removal ‘after the fact’ has now increased, as it has in previous generations of Pixels, where the battery was ‘rigged’ to the phone, and then ‘to’ the device.

Visibility of other functionality remains a ‘few layer down’ under the surface which covers the device protection, and rigidity, and gives ‘reason’ for the problematic fixed repair. ‘”

Praise and Skepticism

While Zack enjoyed how Google appreciated fixing repair problems, iFixit, the repair guide experts, were a little more cautious. The company accepted the changes but said they were not as dramatic as they could be. Nevertheless, iFixit still asserts that the ability to remove a battery without unscrewing the case to be an advancement.

What This Means for Pixel Owners

For most users, these changes will not be noticeable until something goes wrong. However, easier repairs can mean faster completion times and lower costs. As more customers want devices that last longer, these changes, albeit small, show that Google is starting to listen.
