If you have a problem with your Pixel 3 or Pixel 3 XL phone, and live in the U.S., you can now mail it in to Google for repairs.
The news comes via Android Police, which got a statement from Google reflecting the change.
The Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are the latest generation of Google’s flagship Android phones, but they’ve been out since October last year, so the change has been long overdue.
Google confirmed the news to Android Police, saying that “all generations of out of warranty Pixels will now be part of the mail-in Google Repair options.”
The company’s Repair center page still doesn’t reflect the news, but Google says it’ll update it soon.
Alternatively, you can go to a local, walk-in repair center, but if those aren’t available in your vicinity, mailing your phone in for repairs is probably your best option. Note that it might take up to 10 days for Google to start working on repairing your phone. You’ll also need an IMEI number to initiate the repair process.
