The cost of repair can vary from 1,500 to 20,000 rubles depending on the model, type of damage and place of circulation. In this article, we will analyze the current prices for replacing the display in 2026, compare the cost in official services and informal workshops, and tell you how to save without risk to the device.
It's important to understand that the price is not just based on the cost of the screen module itself, but also on the complexity of the work, such as replacing the display with a Xiaomi 13 Ultra with a new one. AMOLED-The sensor and ultrasonic fingerprint scanner will cost more than the Redmi Note 12 IPS-Also, the total amount is affected by the presence of additional damage (for example, chips on the glass of the camera or a damaged plume).
If you are planning a repair, first determine the exact model of your Xiaomi – this can be done in the settings (Settings → About Phone → Model) or by marking under the battery cover (for collapsible models).
Factors Affecting the Cost of Screen Replacement
The price of a repair depends on a few key parameters: AMOLED-displays IPS 1.5-2 times due to the complexity of production and shortage of spare parts. Secondly, the flagship smartphone model (Xiaomi 14, Mix Fold 3) require original modules that cost much more than for budget series (Redmi). A2, POCO M6).
The price is also affected by:
- 🔧 Difficulty disassembling – some models (e.g. Xiaomi) 12S Ultra) have adhesive housing and fragile plumes, which increases labour costs.
- 🛠️ Additional damages – if the touchscreen or matrix fails along with the screen, the price will increase by 30-50%.
- 📍 Repair region – in Moscow and St. Petersburg, services are more expensive by 15-20% than in the regions.
- 🔄 Type of spare parts – the original module from Xiaomi will cost 2-3 times more expensive than the analogue.
Another important point is the warranty: Official service centers give a warranty for a replacement screen (usually 6-12 months), whereas informal workshops may be limited to 1-3 months or not at all, which is worth considering if you plan to sell the phone after repair.
Comparison of prices on Xiaomi models in 2026
Below is a table with the current screen replacement prices for popular Xiaomi models. The data is based on average prices in official services and checked workshops in Russia. Note that in some cases the cost may vary by ± 10-15% depending on the region and availability of shares.

Important: For foldable smartphones (for example, Xiaomi Mix Fold 3), the cost of replacing the internal or external screen can reach 30 000-40,000 rubles due to the unique design and shortage of spare parts.
If your model is not in the table, focus on the class of the device:
- Budget (Redmi) A2, POCO C55) — 3 000–7 000 ₽.
- Mid-segment (Redmi Note 12, Xiaomi 12 Lite) – 7000–12 000 ₽.
- Flagships (Xiaomi 14, Black Shark 6 Pro) – 15,000-25,000 ₽.
Official service vs. informal workshops: where is cheaper?
Choosing between a Xiaomi service center and a private workshop depends on your priorities: Official centers guarantee original parts and retain a warranty on the phone (if it is still valid), but their services cost 20-40% more. Informal workshops often offer lower prices, but there are risks:
- 🔍 Use of non-original parts with worse performance (e.g., lower brightness or distorted colors).
- 🛑 No warranty or a shortened period (1-3 months instead of 6-12).
- ⚠️ Possibility of damaging other components during disassembly (e.g. battery plume or speaker).
Let’s compare the pros and cons of both options:
| Criteria | Official service | Informal workshop |
|---|---|---|
| Cost of spare parts | It's 30 to 50 percent more expensive. | Cheaper, but the risk of poor quality analogues |
| Guarantee | 6–12 months | 1–3 months or not present |
| Duration of repairs | 3-7 days (depending on the availability of spare parts) | 1-3 days (often available) |
| Quality of work | High, certified masters | Depends on the workshop (you need to read reviews) |
If your smartphone is warranty-free, repairing it in an unofficial workshop will automatically cancel it, in which case it is better to contact the official Xiaomi service or authorized partners. For phones older than 2 years, the price difference can be critical - sometimes it is cheaper to buy a new device than to repair the flagship.
💡
Before visiting the workshop, back up your data! When changing the screen, you sometimes need to reset your settings, which will lead to loss of information.
Replacing the screen: Is it worth the risk?
Replacing the Xiaomi screen at home is possible, but requires experience, special tools and patience. The average cost of a kit for repair (suction cups, mediators, hair dryer, glue) is from 1,500 to 3,000 rubles. The screen module itself can be ordered on AliExpress or in Russian spare parts stores (for example, MobiParts or GSMMoscow).
Advantages of self-repair:
- Savings of up to 50% compared to the workshop.
- The ability to choose a high-quality analogue (for example, screens from BOE or Samsung).
Experience that will be useful for future repairs.
But there are also serious risks:
- ⚡ Damage to plumes or motherboard (especially important for models with adhesive housing).
- 🔥 Battery overheating when using a hair dryer (can lead to bloating).
- 📵 Loss of tightness and dust falling under the screen.
- 🚫 Cancellation of the guarantee (if it is still valid).
If you still decide to repair yourself, follow this checklist:
Buy an original or high-quality analogue of the module|Buy tools: suction cups, plastic mediators, hair dryer, tweezers|Download the disassembly instructions for your model|Make a data backup and take it out SIM-map|Work in a clean, well-lit place-->
For beginners, we recommend that you practice on an old phone or watch detailed video instructions on YouTube (for example, Fixez or Repair Universe channels). Some models (Redmi 9A, POCO M3) are relatively easy to understand, while flagships (Xiaomi 13T) require professional skills.
What if the screen doesn’t work after replacement?
How to save money on screen replacement without risk?
There are several legal ways to reduce the cost of repairs without sacrificing quality:
- If you have a policy on a gadget (for example, through Sberbank or AlphaInsurance), repairs can be free or at a discount of up to 70%.
- Xiaomi's official services and major networks (such as Svyaznoy or M. Video) periodically discount repairs.
- Buy the parts yourself. Some workshops agree to install a module that the customer has bought, which will save 10-20% on wholesale prices on AliExpress or in specialty stores.
- If repairs cost more than 50% of the cost of a new smartphone, it is more profitable to use the trade-in program (for example, in the Svyaznoy or Euronetwork).
It’s also worth checking if your phone has an extended warranty. Some Xiaomi models (like the 13/14) series flagships are sold with a free 6-12 month screen warranty, check out your check or your personal account on Mi.com.
💡
Before repairs, always compare the cost of a screen replacement and the price of a new phone. for example, for the Redmi Note 11 (cost) ~15 000 ₽) 8,000-screen replacement ₽ It is a good option for Xiaomi 12 Pro (cost). ~40 000 ₽) repairs for 18,000 ₽ questionable.
Frequent Screen Replacement Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
Even in professional workshops, mistakes happen that lead to additional costs, and here are the most common problems and ways to prevent them:
- 🔌 Damage to the battery plume, where you're not sloppy, you can hit the contacts, which will cause quick discharge or failure to charge, so you can use plastic mediators instead of metal tools.
- 🎨 Color distortion after replacement, often occurs when you install cheap counterparts with poor color reproduction, so you can buy modules with the original matrix (for example, Samsung). AMOLED flagship).
- 🔊 The speaker or the microphone is not working, because it's not built correctly or the contacts are damaged, so that you can check all the components before they're finally assembled.
- 📱 The screen doesn't respond to touch, and it could be due to a faulty touchscreen or an unconnected plume, so you can test the touch after you put it in, but before you fix it with glue.
If you notice one of these problems after repair, go to the shop right away — many services fix the defects for free during the warranty period, but if you repaired the phone yourself, it will be more difficult and expensive to fix the errors.
⚠️ Note: When replacing the screen on models with ultrasonic fingerprint scanner (Xiaomi 13 Ultra, Xiaomi 14) requires additional configuration through service software. Without this, the scanner will not work.
