Comment on YSK before you buy a replacement for your cellphone that has stopped charging, buy the $10 cleaning kits and spend the time deep cleaning the phone's charging port.

  Oh perfect there are repair guides for that. So if you ever need to fix it, you can get all the tools yourself and fix it!

    I’m scared to hell of fixing it, but you’re probably right. It’s better to lose my phone to repairs than lose my data to a random individual!

      there are step by step guides, and im sure you can do it! you know what would be a good idea if you plan to keep the phone for awhile? see if anyone sells a broken pixel 10 or similar, buy the kit to open the phone, and at least when you screw that one up opening it, you know what to do next time!
