@alreadydeadxd Send a photo on the networks, maybe you can make it viral enough ?

@mehdi_benadel apparently it is a known issue with pixel 7a phones
Replying to @alreadydeadxd@infosec.exchange
@alreadydeadxd I understood that, but they still left you without reparation right ? I don't know how the extended warranty could work but best extended warranty is internet backlash.
Replying to @mehdi_benadel@mastodon.balamb.fr
@mehdi_benadel the extended warranty works for the batches google said were affected, turns out mine is not part of those, even though it has the same issue. and the regular warranty expired literally a couple of months ago, so i don't think there's anything for me to do other than replace the battery myself or get a new phone
Replying to @alreadydeadxd@infosec.exchange
@alreadydeadxd I understand. This still sounds highly suspicious. I would at least make it known, in case it's not an isolated case.

@mehdi_benadel i've already seen many other people complaining about the same thing on reddit, definitely not an isolated case, haha
