Pixel phones have support options for in warranty and out of warranty damage. The availability of mail-in and walk-in options depends on your phone's warranty status and your location.
Important: As part of our commitment to sustainability, we may remove the paper warranty from the device packaging of Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro phones. You can check the model and region warranty during phone setup. This info is available on your phone at any time, even if you also received a paper warranty. To find the warranty, under 'Settings', tap About phone Limited warranty.

- For in-warranty devices or damage types, there's no charge for the repairs.
- For out-of-warranty devices or damage types, prices may vary.

Warranties and repair costs
- For in-warranty devices or damage types, there’s no charge for the repairs.
- For out-of-warranty devices or damage types, you'll find the estimated repair cost on the last page before you confirm the purchase and create the repair order.
Check that the address information is accurate. You won't be able to edit the address once you've finished the order.
Decide how you'd like to send your phone in for repair:
- Your own packaging: Use the repair order email to print out the attached delivery label, the Return Merchandise Authorisation (RMA) slip and battery safety label (in the US) to send the phone.
- If you choose this option, you’re responsible for any damage that might occur to your phone in transit. Before you send your phone, make sure that you pack it securely. As packaging can differ from customer to customer and there's a risk that the phone can be damaged in transit, after a successful repair, the repair centre will use certain sturdy boxes to post your phone.
- Prepaid packaging: Once you place your repair order, the prepaid packaging takes 1–2 working days to arrive and contains padding to keep the phone secure. Print out the RMA slip and delivery label that you received in the instruction email to post the phone.
Before you send or bring your phone for repairs, back up your phone and remove the SIM card. For eligible Pixel phones, you may enter repair mode. Otherwise, factory reset your phone. A factory reset deletes all data saved on your phone. If you can't factory reset your phone, log out of your Google Account on the phone:
- Go to myaccount.google.com.
- On the left, tap Security Your devices.
- On the phone, tap More Sign out.
If you can't turn your phone on to reset it, it isn't in repair mode or you have not done the factory reset, the repair partner will reset it for you. Remember to keep your SIM card.

Learn about the mail-in repair process
- If you have any screen protector, it will be removed to assess your phone's full functionality.
- If the phone that we receive is different from the one in the order, we can't process your repair and we'll return the phone to you.
- If the inspection confirms that the repair is covered under warranty, the repair will begin and you won't be charged.
- If the repair costs less than or matches the estimate, you'll be charged as soon as the inspection is complete, and the repair begins.
- If we find other damage that wasn't in the original order and the repair cost increases, we'll ask you to approve the new cost before the start of the repair.
- Note that while we estimate 7–10 working days to finish the whole repair order, this doesn't include time taken to approve the updated cost.
- All damages in the repair order will be repaired at the same time, so partial repairs aren't available.
- You'll have 10 days to accept the updated repair order and the final cost.
- If you don't respond within 10 days or you reject the updated order, your repair order is cancelled. Your phone is returned to you unrepaired, and you aren't charged.
After inspection and any final approval that we might need from you, we start the repair.
Cosmetic damage, like scratches, won't be repaired. If our inspection shows only cosmetic damage, your phone will be returned to you unrepaired.
Once the repairs are complete you'll receive an email letting you know, and your phone will be sent back to you with a tracking link
