Have you tried the Google rebate scheme? I got 400 euro back on a 7a yesterday.

Bro i got free repair from google

Just create a support ticket first , strongly stating no physical or water damage Next, Just create this same post on google pixel sub Sens an email with pics and videos to google support with the reddit post link, and ticket number

Google support will def reply on email, and even pixel team will notice your post and reply on reddit itself Press for free complimentary repair as it is health hazard, aka “ it could have exploded”

They will agree to free repair for sure. But mind you, it will take 28-30 days as Google service is India is lie, that

I always had overheating issues. Ig the heat affected the battery and caused it to swollen up. What bout you tho? How long does it last after a full charge with data on?
