That is not what the eligibility tool for the battery program is telling me.
And Google Support told me the same thing when I asked for clarification about how the eligibility is determined.
Edit: The email says Pixel 7a, but that is a mistake on their part. I have a Pixel 6a.
If you are near a uBreakiFix (official repair partner for Google) stop by a store. The original device warranty does not matter. As long as your device is not severely damaged and the IMEI is flagged as eligible, the battery is covered under the extended warranty replacement. If the screen was damaged because the battery swelled, that’s covered too.
