Pixel 5a 5G is an excellent mid-range phone. In addition to the price and native Android experience, maintainability is also acceptable. The tubing channel PBKreviews disassembled the device, and finally gave a repairable score of 5 points (total score of 10 points, the higher the score, the easier it is to repair).
Since the Pixel 5a 5G has an IP67 dust and water resistance rating, the side of the phone is covered with adhesive, so you need to heat it immediately to soften the adhesive and use several prying tools to lift the screen assembly. After that, you are greeted by a huge 4680mAh battery, which is covered by a black graphene film.
Some parts of Pixel 5a 5G need to be wiped with alcohol before disassembly. The battery pull tab is also easy to tear, so if this happens, be extra careful when prying out the battery. Some parts are covered by tape, and the screws used inside are not uniform, so some more complicated screwdriver combinations are required.
