Overview
What this part is
The earpiece speaker on the Google Pixel 3a is the speaker you hold to your ear during calls, at the top of the screen. Dust, moisture and drops can damage it, and the sound becomes quiet, crackly or stops completely.
This is the speaker unit only. If the caller can hear you but you cannot hear them, while speakerphone works, the earpiece is usually the cause. Clean the speaker grille first, as blocked mesh can have the same effect.

How to check your model
Open Settings › About phone. The device name should read Pixel 3a, not Pixel 3a XL. The model code is shown in Settings › About phone › Regulatory labels and on the phone box.
The Pixel 3a has a 5.6-inch screen. The Pixel 3a XL is larger, at 6.0 inches. The Pixel 3 and Pixel 3a are also different phones.
Professional installation
How a technician fits this part
- Power the Pixel 3a off and remove the SIM tray.
- Warm the screen edges and open the display carefully with a thin opening tool.
- Disconnect the battery before touching any other part.
- Remove the top covers and lift out the old speaker.
- Fit the new speaker, making sure the contacts and any gasket sit correctly.
- Reconnect the battery and test calls, ringtone and speakerphone before closing.
- Reseal the screen with new adhesive and press evenly while it cures.
Check that the part matches the device before fitting it or removing any adhesive backing. Once a part has been fitted, it cannot be returned for a change of mind. Faulty parts are always covered.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Will this fit my Pixel 3a?
Yes, if Settings › About phone shows Pixel 3a. It also fits the Pixel 3a XL.
Does it fit the Pixel 3a XL?
Yes. This part is listed for both the Pixel 3a and the Pixel 3a XL. It does not fit other Pixel models.
Why can I hear on speakerphone but not in calls?
Speakerphone uses the loudspeaker. Normal calls use the earpiece at the top. If only normal calls are quiet or silent, the earpiece speaker is usually the fault.
Is it made by Google?
No. It is a brand new, OEM-quality earpiece speaker made to fit the Google Pixel 3a, and every part is tested before dispatch.
Should I fit it myself?
We recommend professional installation. The Pixel 3a opens from the screen side, which needs heat, the right tools and new adhesive, and the battery must be disconnected safely.
