Common Pixel 3 issues we check at inspection

  • Screen burn-in on OLED display. Ghost images from status bar, navigation buttons, or keyboard visible on OLED panels after extended use. Common on P-OLED panels.
  • Battery degradation below 80% health. Original 2915mAh battery showing <80% maximum capacity after 2+ years of use. Leads to significantly reduced screen-on time.
  • Cracked or damaged screen glass. Gorilla Glass 5 is durable but susceptible to cracks from drops, especially on the edges. Often listed as 'cracked screen'.
  • Water damage indicators tripped. Despite IP68 rating, prolonged submersion or high-pressure water can cause internal damage. Sellers may not disclose, but it's a risk.
  • Faded or peeling power button paint. The colored paint on the power button of the Pixel 3 is known to wear off with use, revealing the underlying plastic.
  • Rear glass cracking. The Gorilla Glass 5 back can crack from drops, similar to the front screen.

Do I get more selling my Pixel 3 here than trading it in with my carrier?+

Back up, remove your Google and manufacturer accounts (to clear the factory-reset lock), remove your SIM/SD card, then factory reset. We wipe it again to NIST 800-88 standards and email you a Certificate of Data Erasure.
