You Can Finally Replace the Batteries on These New Pixel Devices ...Middle East

Smartphones haven't had a great track record with repairability, but following legal pressure in regions like the EU and states like Oregon, that's been steadily improving in recent years. Smaller devices, like smartwatches and earbuds, have had more trouble on this front, but now Google's looking to change that.

With the Pixel Buds 2a and Pixel Watch 4, however, Google's bucking that trend. Thanks to some clever design, the batteries on both of these devices are replaceable, and you can even replace the screen on the Pixel Watch.

The company's also done its best to ensure replacement is easy. There are small screws at the bottom of the earbud wells, and you'll simply need to remove them and slide out the interior of the case to find the battery compartment and swap out your dead battery for a new one. The only complaint I have is that the screws aren't Phillips-head or flat, but instead require a Torx screwdriver, which is a bit less common. Presumably, Google will sell the required screwdriver alongside its battery repair parts, but I've reached out to double check and will update this post when I hear back.

At any rate, it's certainly an improvement on years past. Check the green sticker on the above photo to see where the battery compartment actually is—you'll just need to slide it out to finish your repair.

The catch? On the Pixel Buds 2a, the earbuds themselves do not have replaceable batteries, but this is still a far cry from anything we've gotten from other major manufacturers like Apple. Google threw a lot of shade at Apple during its Made by Google event today, mostly over the competition's slow adoption of AI. But if you ask me, this is what the Android maker should be most proud of today.
