Its great to see google finally move in the right direction with the hardware, My last pixel 6a had micrphone damage and the service guys said that they had to replace the whole motherboard, if it had this design the repair would have gone a bit more easy on the wallet. Was waiting for this video to drop, Great teardown as always !
To be honest, you have done a better job than those bigger channel (iykyk). You have removed the battery how it was intended to be like. Good job!!! Such a pity that this year you are not doing the teardown of the flagships (Pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL). Really hoping that next year, you will be the one doing the flagship teardown (P10 Pro series) instead.
Thanks! Yeah, I would have done them but since they already had been done by others by the time I was able to get them, it wasn't worth the cost of the devices vs views I would get. Hopefully I will be able to get them earlier next year.
Finally the changing port is replaceable, that was something that got me worried when I bought my pixel 7, now I will buy another pixel when my buddy can't hold the pace
Yeah modular charging port aside, im still wondering why are batteries welded to the frame with the amount of glue that could probably hold an elephant's worth of weight. Its not like the battery will fall out at any given moment or anything. Is it really just a question of companies not willing to invest pocket change into inventing a thinner adhesive strip? Idk, i dont understand it. Just seems illogical to me to use THAT much glue for a part that clearly doesnt need that much. Not talking just about Pixel 9 here.
i have a pixel 9 and can confirm it's so much better than the other pixel phones i've had (the 3a and 7a). im getting 12 hours of battery on one charge, and ive had absolutely no heat issues like i had on my 7a.
And to be able to take off that damn Google search bar at the top of the screen. I sold my Pixel 7a because of that bar that cannot be replaced or moved. They say Android is more "free" than ios and yet they don't give you the choice to remove things of your home screen...
@@Pleskan87 I tried to use different launcher but none of them are as smooth and have great animations as the original one. And I don't want to change my original launcher, why on all Android phones you can do it but on the Pixels you cannot ? It's a thing to call Android free while on Pixels it's worse than ios. So for now they can keep their smartphones with software limitations.
Android doesn't have as much freedom as iOS lol (unless you want to waste time to delve deeper into technical things, experiment and mess around, iOS has always had far better customization) Third-party android launchers perform like shit and then there's maintainance part and stuff.
You're welcome. Since its already been done by others, it won't be worth spending the money on them since they won't get enough views to justify the cost.
Would be awesome see the camera from the side to have a mention of dimensions of the camera and how this engineering unexpected camera bump musst be popping out from the phone like this
Been waiting for a replaceable USB-C daughterboard!. I wish the battery was easier to replace. That being said, I wonder if the Vapor chamber and the cameras (looks modular) of the Pro can be hacked into the 9.
Could you do a teardown of realme P1 5g and show us the vapour chamber they are using bco inspite of this it heats crazy upto 41°C just by using RUclips for 20 min.
8,5 reparability - is device that can be repared by user, like fairphone 5 or something. i am skilled user, and i see that repair is a nightmare, i wouldn't step into it by my free will. this is 7 at most. at very most.
My repairability chart can differ from others. It's not only based on how easy the repair is but also other factors as broken down in the chart. The fact the screen can be replaced by just heating it up and prying it off from the front, and the rest of the phone parts can be replaced from the back not needing to take the screen off is already a good start. Overall its more repairable than the last models from google over the years.
3:48 thats not Perfect too easy, any One Notice the battery Removes........ Finally Usb subBoard In pixel.........😂 10:39 Its Good to See. Easy to Replace............ Good Design for Part......... But Rates of PARTS its too Many Highest $ Cost they made..... Call Service Centre and get estimate of Part 😂
google need to stop using that stupid pulltab mechanism. apple repairability is the rock bottom still managed to use better pulltab. it was satisfying.
Great work to demonstrate how correct removal of the battery to look like. Hard to do but possible whit cutting motion.
Thanks!

Finally google lets you replace the google pixel 9 phones usb type c charging port easy!🗿
yup! finally.
Yeah! After 4 generations of phones (of their own) they finally went back!
Spectacular video, thank you for your excellent work, I always follow your videos 👍
Thanks!

Great Video as always! I just received my Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold and i am looking forward to seeing one at the mercy of your great hands soon LOL
thanks! however I currently don't have plans for that phone
Bro just removed the battery how googled wanted .... I fix it couldn't do that , I bet Google engineers couldn't do it !!!
Thank you, there is a good chance I will be reffering to this sometime in the next few years ;)

yey i mean as in: 1. u make video 2. Google changed up the design and 3. now we know how it comes apart

That battery removing process is such a pain in the butt.
Aww, thank you Google for making the battery so easy to replace! /s
So simple, that's great
Thank you! I was waiting for this teardown.
Will you also do this for the 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL?

Google saves money on battery and cooling system
Great video! Do you know where I can find more info (and parts) to replace a cracked camera glass on my Pixel Pro 9 XL?
PBK you are pretty genius but after saw this video i think not every mechanic can not repair this phone easily..damn...
Thanks!
Interesting to see google changed the configuration to a more traditional style.
yup!
google is the closes company to build high quality internal like apple. or what do you say?
Incredible!
How did vivo manage a fit a 5700mah and a 8.2mm thick small body?

is it the same on the pixel 9 pro ? can it be easily replaced (the USB port) as on the regular pixel 9 ? Can you confirm that please ?
Yes, same with the 9 Pro/XL

Can you teardown Galaxy Fold 6, and confirm that there is no hinge brush anymore please?
I currently don't have any plans for a teardown on that model.
Honor 200/pro please 🙌🏻
Please do pixel 9 pro teardown
My friend, you need a tool to install the phone on it and work easily.
Nice
Thanks

isopropyl alcohol. iFixit sells it under adhesive remover on their website.

Hay bro mujhe apna MI black Shark 2 phone repair Karana hai main India se hun kaise ho payega
NO VC?
nope, but the Pro XL has it.
pixel 9 pro teardown please
Please open xperia 10 VI and 1 VI
I saw a teardown for the Pixel 9 Pro XL which mentioned that it's tough to do. Seems like the regular Pixel 9 is much better in that regard.
Most of it is fairly simple, the battery will just take some time but doable. 🙂
Infinix gt 20 pro please
I don't have plans for that model at the moment, but I will look into it.
Bro iqooz9s teardown please
I don't do IQOO phones since they don't get many views to justify the cost of purchasing the phone.
Why don't you teardown Vivo iqoo phone
IQOO phones don't get enough views from people on my channel to justify me buying the devices. I've done some in the past and none did well so yep.
@@PBKreviews ok sir keep it up love from India
👍
Vivo v40 please
Ewwwwwwwww
this phone is joke is same as pixel 6 when overheats
WOW GOOGLE PIXEL 9 USDE X AXIS LINEAR MOTOR & VAPOR CHAMBER COOLING. FINNALLY
Vapor chamber on the XL but didn't see one in the Pixel 9
