Replacing back case on pixel 8 pro (lemm.ee)

submitted 8 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

4 comments fedilink hide all child comments

So I bought a pixel 8 pro a few days ago, and my dumbass dropped it and sure enough the back glass cracked as a result. I ordered a replacement case from iFixit, but I'm worried about doing the replacement myself. Does anyone have any experience in this regard and can offer any tips? Do I have to disassemble the entire phone, or is there a way to only get the back cover/frame off without going through the screen?

I can't help as I don't have a Pixel 8/8 Pro, and (fortunately) I haven't had to replace any part of my Pixel 7a yet. So how did the back glass replacement go?

Still waiting on parts from iFixit. They're using USPS for shipping and it's taking forever. I'll probably be able to do the repair next weekend, hopefully...
