Hi guys,

Unfortunately I have a bloody Pixel 6a (my first and last Google phone) with problematic battery and I wonder where to get a replacement battery from. There is plenty of those on AliExpress but I'd really like to avoid having a battery with same issues or worse. There is no battery available from my country's importer. I'm from EU. Any recommendation?

TIA

I don't have an answer for you, but I took mine to a repair shop for battery replacement and the wait time for a replacement battery is 4 to 6 weeks. I mean it's nice that people are replacing the batteries rather than just getting a new phone, but that must be a LOT of bum batteries to make them so scarce.

I've generally used eBay and done fine.

The question is whether you'll see the dreaded message again after 400 cycles.
