In its services and repair terms and conditions, Google says it will keep devices sent in for repair if they have a non-OEM part.
Update:
Google changes repair policy after criticism of third-party parts ban Google previously said it would not return mailed-in devices using “unauthorized” parts.
When is this shit pulled by Samsung and now Google considered stealing?
It is actualy legally considered stealing. There might be countries where their service centre TOS are allowed to overwrite common law, but that would be outliers. In virtually all countries it’s just theft.
When you live in a sane country. I can’t imagine this applying anywhere in Europe for example.
