Thinking of picking up the stunning Xiaomi 14 Ultra Titanium Edition with its fancy satellite communication and top-notch specs? Well, hold on a sec. While the phone itself screams luxury, getting it fixed after the warranty period can be a wallet-whacker.
Here’s a breakdown of Xiaomi’s official repair part prices for the Titanium Edition, so you know what you’re getting into:
Be prepared for Big Bills: Motherboard and Screen Take the Repair Cost Cake
The most shocking repair cost? The motherboard replacement, a whopping 3030 Yuan (around ₹45,000). A cracked screen isn’t much kinder at 1690 Yuan (roughly ₹25,000). This is even steeper than the standard Xiaomi 14 Ultra’s screen repair, which sits at a more reasonable 1350 Yuan (around ₹20,000).
Thankfully, Not Everything Breaks the Bank
There’s some good news! Components like the battery and rear camera modules are easier on your wallet. Remember, these prices are just for the parts themselves. There’s a standard labor fee of 40 Yuan (around ₹600) added to each repair.

Pro Tip: Labor Fee Charged Only Once, Even for Multiple Parts
If your unfortunate repair requires replacing multiple parts, you’ll only be charged the labor fee once, which is a small consolation!
Why the Hefty Price Tag for the Titanium Edition Screen?
While Xiaomi hasn’t officially confirmed, the sky-high screen repair cost likely stems from the phone’s premium materials. The Titanium Edition boasts a “higher-grade titanium” mid-frame compared to the standard version for extra toughness. Plus, it has a fancy “tech nano-leather” back cover that supposedly lasts six times longer. All that cutting-edge tech comes at a cost!
Final Thoughts: Consider Your Options Before the Fall
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra Titanium Edition is a technological marvel, but its repair costs are no joke. Before you take the plunge, consider getting a sturdy case and screen protector. Remember, prevention is always better (and cheaper) than cure!
