My Pixel 6's batterie is already pretty weak :/

Replace the battery :)

Here's some BS. My phone's battery replacement cost $220. ($100 for battery, and $120 to be serviced) That was the same price as buying a refurbished version of the upgrade.

I missed the days of just replacing the battery with a screwdriver.

Im looking forward for "User replaceable batteries" 2027 in EU.

same. How long can we still use the device if we just never unplug from charger? Legit curious, seems weird to replace battery for a backup phone, but storage is storage
