	[* black] Eager to get a look at the XL power plant, we peel back the wireless charging pad.
	[* black] Unfortunately, it follows the glue-y precedent set by the rear case.
-	[* 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].
	[* black] Despite being smaller than last year, the Pixel 3 XL still beats out the [guide\|113021\|iPhone XS Max\|stepid=216142], and comes close to the [guide\|104308\|Galaxy S9+\|stepid=195675\|new_window=true].
