Google pixel 8 | looking for reliable 3rd party service in Bengaluru, India

My device power button isn't working for the past 3 days and due to this it sometimes auto restarts on its own.

I did visit the authorised service center in 1mg mall but they said they can't repair this device as it's motherboard is from the US (As is the device) and the panel they have is only for Indian models (apparently the motherboards are different).

Does anyone know/anyone here who can provide 3rd party support.

Ugh.... What do I do now ? :')

My Pixel 8 Pro is literally at 35 of it's battery and it's past 1pm...
What is even the point of buying a Pixel these days if you can't go outside without a powerbank ?

Google, please, fix the battery drain of your phones... it’s pathetic.

It makes no sense that the Pixel 8 series is not getting an AirDrop compatibility update, since it has the same chip as the Pixel 8a

"for android phones with supporting hardware" they said but no Pixel 8 and 8 pro included

Worth upgrading in this case?

I’ve had my Pixel 8 for about 1.5 years now. In my country there’s currently a deal for the Pixel 10a: €550, with €235 trade-in for my P8 plus free Pixel Buds 2a.

One thing that makes me hesitant: after only 6 months, my Pixel 8 suddenly developed a swollen battery out of nowhere. It was replaced under warranty, but I still keep reading about display issues and other hardware problems with Pixels from time to time.

I really love the size of the P8 and overall I’m still happy with it, even though it lags occasionally. The problem is that my warranty only has about 6 months left, so I’m wondering if upgrading now would make sense.

What do you guys think? Is it worth upgrading?

Upgraded to the 8a

After careful consideration, I decided not to go for the 8 coz of the pink lines. I hope it'll last me as long as my 3a did

Heat damage pixel 8

My Google Pixel 8 accidentally got exposed to heat on a glass stove and now I’m trying to figure out if it’s repairable or dangerous to keep using.

What happened:

  • Somehow the glass stove turned on without me realizing.
  • My phone was lying on it for some time.
  • The camera protector melted externally, but I also noticed internal changes in both rear cameras.

Current symptoms:

  • Both rear camera lenses now look blurry/white/bubbly internally.
  • Rear camera image is distorted and blurry.
  • Front camera still works perfectly.
  • Phone still turns on and functions normally.
  • Initially it only heated while using the camera app, but now it warms up whenever the phone is on.

Things I checked:

  • No visible battery swelling.
  • No smoke or burning smell.
  • Screen and touchscreen work normally.
  • No shutdowns so far.

I’m a student, so I’m trying to figure out the cheapest reasonable option.

Questions:

  1. Does this sound like only rear camera module damage, or could the motherboard/battery also be affected?
  2. Has anyone seen internal “bubbly/foggy” camera damage like this after heat exposure?
  3. Is cleaning sometimes possible, or do the rear camera modules usually need replacement?
  4. Would you trust cheaper aftermarket camera modules, or should I only use OEM/genuine parts?
  5. Is it safe to continue using the phone temporarily if there’s no swelling/smoke?

I’d really appreciate any advice or similar experiences.
