| + | [* black] The tough adhesive trend continues, holding the wireless charging coil to the Pixel's powerhouse. But we spy some respite! |
| [* black] The battery is secured with relatively repair-friendly stretch-release adhesive. So you get at least one chance at easy removal, if your technique is right! | |
| [* icon_note] These strips didn't actually help ''us'' much, but the [guide|113763|Pixel 3|new_window=true] had better luck. | |
| [* black] We resort to flossing out the battery and accidentally cut a fragile ribbon cable hiding underneath! Forewarned is forearmed—a repair manual would have helped us in this arena. | |
| [* black] Adhesive ordeals aside, the battery's out: the Pixel 3 XL is packing 13.2 Wh. That's actually down a smidge 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] The Pixel 3 XL still beats out the [guide|113021|iPhone XS Max|stepid=216142] (12.08 Wh), and comes close to the [guide|104308|Galaxy S9+|stepid=195675|new_window=true] (13.48 Wh). |
