Know your Pixel before choosing a charging port repair
Some Pixel phones look almost identical from the front — and even share a similar screen size — while using completely different charging port parts.
Take the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8a. They look alike at a glance and both use USB-C, but the charging port assemblies are different and not interchangeable. Pro models also use different parts from their standard counterparts, and on some models the port sits on a separate sub-board or flex cable while on others it is more closely integrated with other internal components.
That difference matters because the exact model determines which charging port fits your Pixel, how involved the repair is and how much it costs. Choosing by appearance or connector type alone can easily lead to the wrong part or price.
You can find your model in Settings → About phone → Model, or by checking the model details on the box or label. If your Pixel won’t power on, bring it to MrFix and we’ll identify the model for you before confirming your charging port option and exact repair price.
