Original parts will only be available in the USA, Canada, Australia, UK, Australia, and EU (where Pixels are legally sold). <\/p>\n<p>We don&#8217;t know the prices yet, but keep an eye on <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ifixit.com\/google\">this page<\/a>. Soon you will be able to find components like batteries, displays, cameras and more there. They will be available individually as well as bundled with iFixit Fix Kits, which include the tools necessary for the job. iFixit has also provided detailed instructions on how to disassemble the phones. <\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/22\/04\/google-pixel-self-repair-program\/popup\/-868x868m\/gsmarena_001.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"iFixit sells spudgers, screw drivers and anything else you might need to open up a phone\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/04\/google-pixel-self-repair-program\/popup\/-640\/gsmarena_001.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/><span><strong>iFixit sells spudgers, screw drivers and anything else you might need to open up a phone<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p> If you&#8217;re worried about your computer getting damaged, Google partners with repair centers such as e.g. uBreakiFix, which has over 750 locations in the US and Canada. Similar services are available in Germany, the UK and Japan and Google is working to expand that to more countries. Head to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/store.google.com\/magazine\/repaircenter?hl=en-US\">this page<\/a> to check for a repair center near you. <\/p>\n<p>By the way, Google launched a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/outreach-initiatives\/education\/chromebook-repairs\/\">Chromebook repair program<\/a> this February in partnership with Acer, Lenovo and others. <\/p>\n<p>Making its devices more repairable is Google&#8217;s way to fight e-waste. That&#8217;s not the only thing though, the company is getting serious about recycling too. Starting this year, 100% of Google hardware products include recycled materials and shipping direct to consumers is carbon-neutral. <\/p>\n<p>Google aims to achieve a Zero Waste to landfill certification this year and to remove all plastic from its packaging by 2025. If you have old gadgets you no longer need and aren&#8217;t in a good enough condition to be sold, check out the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/store.google.com\/us\/magazine\/recycling?hl=en-US\">recycling program<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>PS. iFixit also runs self-repair programs with Samsung, and Microsoft. <\/p>\n<p class=\"article-source\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.google\/outreach-initiatives\/sustainability\/pixel-phone-repairs\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-image\">https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/04\/google-pixel-self-repair-program\/-952x498w6\/gsmarena_000.jpg<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-link\">https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/ifixit_will_sell_components_to_repair_your_pixel_phone_going_back_to_the_pixel_2-news-53896.php?rand=119<\/div>\n<p><\/wordaidoc><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iFixit will sell components to repair your Pixel phone, going back to the Pixel 2 Google has officially announced a partnership with iFixit to sell repair kits for its Pixel series of phones &#8211; from the Pixel 2 (2017) to the current Pixel 6 series.
