Checking the “Google Pixel 4a Smartphone Battery Status” isn’t straightforward for your Pixel 4a, requiring an understanding of a key point: Google has permanently removed the built-in battery health indicator from the Pixel 4a, and a January 2025 update will artificially limit the battery capacity of some devices.
Here are three different methods for checking battery status, listed from most important to least important.
1. The Only Way to Determine if Battery Capacity is Artificially Limited (Highly Recommended)
This method doesn’t check the “health status,” but rather whether Google has intentionally reduced your battery capacity.
Official IMEI Lookup: Visit theGoogle Pixel 4a Smartphone Battery
Performance Plan page and enter your IMEI. This will tell you if your device is among the “Affected Devices.”
Importance: If your device is affected, regardless of its physical health, your battery capacity will be permanently reduced due to software reasons. Even a brand new replacement battery will have its capacity limited.
2. Removed “Battery Health” Feature (Unavailable)
In 2022, Android 13 QPR1 Beta introduced the “Battery Health” feature for the Pixel 4a, displaying an estimated capacity percentage (Settings > Google Pixel 4a Battery > Google Pixel 4a Smartphone Battery Health).
Actual situation: This feature was never officially released on the Pixel 4a. Google has removed the official system image. You cannot view the battery health percentage on the standard, latest version of the Pixel 4a.
3. General Troubleshooting (No Status Check)
Results from checking “Google Pixel 4a Battery Usage” (Settings > Battery > Battery Usage) or toggling the battery percentage only indicate battery consumption, not battery status or performance degradation. These results do not show the remaining battery capacity.
Note for Pixel 4a users:
Do not look for the “Maximum Capacity” percentage. This feature does not exist on your phone.
Please check if your device is among the “Affected Devices”. This will determine whether your recent short battery life is due to permanent damage or a software-imposed limitation.
If your device is affected, your only option is: a free Google Pixel 4a Smartphone Battery replacement (in select countries).
