Chapter 1

Welcome, Safety & What’s in the Box

This chapter gets you safely from sealed box to ready-to-set-up. It explains essential safety, regulatory, warranty, and repair information exactly where Google documents it, and shows you how to record the identifiers (IMEI, serial, EID) you’ll need later for service, eSIM, or insurance. Where model-specific details (for example, exact in-box items) depend on Google’s Pixel 10 product page after launch, I’ll show you how to verify them the official way.

1.1 Before You Break the Seal: How to Unbox Safely and Verify Authenticity

Unboxing sets the tone for the whole ownership experience. Do it somewhere clean and dry, near a power outlet, and keep all packaging until you’ve verified the phone powers on correctly.

Step-by-step:

Inspect the factory seals and labels. 

○ Genuine Pixel phones ship with tamper-evident seals. If a seal is broken or the box looks re-taped, pause and contact your retailer.
○ Photograph all sides of the box before opening. These images (including the barcodes) will help if you ever need to prove condition or claim warranty.

Identify the device on the box. 

○ On the label panel you’ll find the model name, storage, color, IMEI (for cellular identity), serial number (SN), and increasingly the EID (for eSIM). You’ll record these again from software once the phone is powered, but keep a photo from the box—handy if the device won’t turn on.

Open carefully; remove small items first. 

○ Use a flat surface so small components (SIM tool, adapters) don’t roll away. If anything appears missing, compare to Google’s official “What’s in the box” list on the Pixel 10 product page once it’s live (Google always publishes this on the device’s store page and/or help article). For earlier Pixels, Google’s printed Safety & Warranty booklet is included and mirrored online at g.co/pixel/safety; expect the same pattern here.

Visually check the phone. 

○ Look for scratches, bent pins in the USB-C port, or lens damage on the camera bar. If anything looks off out of the box, do not power on—contact your seller immediately and document with photos.

Why we’re cautious here: If you later need warranty service, Google’s repair and warranty flows will ask for your IMEI/serial and may take condition into account. Starting with a clean paper trail helps.

What exactly is “in the box”?

Because Pixel 10 isn’t publicly listed yet, we won’t guess at the exact bundle. Google’s pages always enumerate the contents (phone, cable, adapters, documentation). Once Google publishes Pixel 10’s store listing, confirm the official list there. Historically, Pixel packages include a USB-C to USB-C cable and a Quick Switch Adapter in some regions, but this varies by model and country—always defer to the specific Pixel’s store page after launch. The Safety & Regulatory manual is available online for every Pixel generation at g.co/pixel/safety and within Settings ▸ About phone ▸ Safety & regulatory manual.
