Google Pixel 9 Pro Battery Replacement

This repair guide was authored by the iFixit staff and hasn’t been endorsed by Google. Learn more about our repair guides here.

Follow this guide to remove or replace the battery in your Google Pixel 9 Pro.

Lithium-ion batteries have a limited lifespan. If your phone doesn't hold a charge or dies unexpectedly, it might be time to replace the battery.

If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.

This procedure requires clamping your phone to your workspace. If you don't have clamps, you'll need a second person to secure the phone.

You'll need replacement rear cover adhesive to complete this repair.

Note: Any repair can compromise the water resistance of your phone. Retaining water resistance after the repair will depend on how well you reapply the rear cover adhesive.
