google-pixelIt is a terrible feeling when your phone stops working, whatever the reason is. Usually the repair process can take a while, anywhere between a couple of days to a week, depending on how fast the repair company works. However the good news for Pixel owners is that Google is looking to offer up same day repairs.

How does this work? Basically Google will be teaming up with uBreakiFix to offer same day repairs, but note that this will only apply to customers in the US and and Canada. If you live outside those markets and you break your Pixel phone, we guess that’s just too bad then as you’ll have to deal with regular repair waiting times.

According to uBreakiFix’s founder Justin Wetherill, “We are pleased to provide Pixel customers with the quality repair service and exceptional customer experience that have come to define our brand. A broken device shouldn’t have to ruin someone’s day.” The repairs are expected to cost $129-$149 for a screen repair, and $79 if it is regarding your device’s charging port or battery.

It is possible that you could get the device repaired for cheaper somewhere else, but if you wanted to get your phone back within the same day, these will be the prices you can expect to pay.
