| '''This procedure will almost always destructively remove the Pixel 4 XL’s screen.''' OLEDs cease to work when exposed to oxygen or moisture, and are thus sealed in an airtight encapsulation (this is also why OLED panels turn black underneath a screen crack). It is very difficult to replace the front glass alone— the Pixel’s OLED layers are laminated to the glass, and the screen will come out as one unit. |
