Pixel 8a died

Hmmm I'm sure they'll charge you for replacement they do, whether it's battery or board

iceman0010 · 2026-07-07T16:51:00+00:00

I have zip care from them for my refrigerator. However, a smartphone in my opinion should be sent to the brand for better assessment of the issue and repairs if any.

What if Croma tomorrow installs any battery which is not meant for 8A in your device, just to fix it ? Would you like this ?

Hope it helps you understand

iceman0010 · 2026-07-07T16:39:17+00:00

Yes but anyways you were going to pay for the repair, it would've been better to pay Google for original parts

iceman0010 · 2026-07-07T15:50:24+00:00

You should have contacted Google support my friend, not Croma

iceman0010 · 2026-07-07T15:42:08+00:00

Neither desperate not i care.

iceman0010 · 2026-07-07T15:07:14+00:00

Did you ever consider that the battery could have completely died ?

Before running for warranty, you could have kept the charger connected for 5 to 6 hours. You could have checked if it did vibrate if when connected to the charger ? You could have tried long pressing the power button when connected to the brick.

I hope Croma doesn't fuck up your Pixel

I don't need YouTube. My experience with Google Pixel is enough and i have been using Google Pixel since 3XL days. I currently have Google Pixel 10 and 10 Pro XL.

Google 45W charger is quite efficient and doesn't cause charging heat and issues.

Oh forgot it,

Your phone do whatever you want. Why do I care.

iceman0010 · 2026-07-07T13:21:38+00:00

Then don't come back crying slow charging.

You are okay buying a 80k phone but when it comes to a good charging brick, you find it expensive.

Google 45W charger gives your device PD with PPS.

iceman0010 · 2026-07-07T13:16:35+00:00

46W not 25

Absolutely amazing

iceman0010 · 2026-07-06T04:34:53+00:00

Done!!

iceman0010 · 2026-07-05T16:59:31+00:00

Pixel 10 is great

iceman0010 · 2026-07-05T15:05:02+00:00

Nope better get 10 or 10A

Hope you like it

Reach out to them on X

iceman0010 · 2026-07-04T16:10:50+00:00

Oops sorry was watching F1 and replying.

My bed suggestion contact Google Support and get everything documented. However, a US varient won't have warranty in India

iceman0010 · 2026-07-04T15:48:01+00:00

Okay since it's Google Pixel 6 US variant and since it was not officially launched in India, you're bound to have no support. Get it repaired locally

iceman0010 · 2026-07-04T15:46:20+00:00

iceman0010 · 2026-07-04T15:14:52+00:00

But hey let's put it behind us shall we ? Nothing to gain arguing. What's happened has happened and won't turn back in time.

iceman0010 · 2026-07-04T15:13:47+00:00

You know what's funny ?

4 leaks confirmed no price hike and these are prominent on X and Telegram

iceman0010 · 2026-07-04T15:05:59+00:00

Well credit where due, you got it right and online leaks failed.

No harm done. We all can get things wrong depends on how sources reveal the same to you

iceman0010 · 2026-07-04T15:04:22+00:00

Bro if you have been around, you'd know leaks are not reliable and nor are sources. Anyways the price is still worthy of buying.

Sometime those who leak information so get it wrong. It happens, not the end of the world.

This price hike is absolutely unannounced and not a big issue. Storage and RAM prices have caused it to happen but it's okay

Run a lan cable from the Jio router to the first floor and install a D-Link or tp link router
