Pixel 6a battery replacement (programming.dev)

Hi guys,

Unfortunately I have a bloody Pixel 6a (my first and last Google phone) with problematic battery and I wonder where to get a replacement battery from. There is plenty of those on AliExpress but I'd really like to avoid having a battery with same issues or worse. There is no battery available from my country's importer. I'm from EU. Any recommendation?

TIA

Yeah no idea about the Pixel 6a or how difficult it is to swap batteries, but 400 cycles is at least a couple of years, right? If the swap isn't a big hassle, just do it again. Or for that matter if the old battery is still good after 400 cycles and the phone wants a replacement, just take the old one out and put it in again.

It doesn't look too bad:
