| [* black] Already weary from unexpected battles with adhesive, we're grateful to see pull strips on the battery. But as pull strips are wont to do, ours break before they release the battery. | |
| [* black] Our excitement is further stifled when, while prying out the battery, we accidentally tear a fragile ribbon cable hiding underneath. Future pryers beware! | |
| [* black] Adhesive ordeals aside, the battery's out: the Pixel 3 XL is running on 3430 mAh at 3.85 V for a total of 13.2 Wh. That's actually down from the [guide|98093|Pixel 2 XL's 13.6 Wh|stepid=180041|new_window=true], and around the same as the original [guide|71237|Pixel XL's 13.28 Wh|stepid=142663|new_window=true]. | |
