How much should it cost to replace my battery?

My aging (6-7 year old) Redmi 5 Plus is still in fair working condition but the screen seems to be less responsive - most likely due to a bit of separation from the body (supposedly cause by battery enlargement). How much should I expect to spend to remedy this situation?

Are you planning on replacing the battery yourself? If so, the cost is only going to be whatever price you find for a battery; my somewhat cursory search (using the search string "xiaomi redmi 5 plus battery replacement") shows available batteries going anywhere from $5 to $20 USD. Guides to show you step by step instructions are also available online; here's one that I would recommend.

You may also need some tools; go through the guide and get the tools they show being used for the repair like the ones listed at the top of the page (protip: you can buy everything you need right here on iFixit).

If you want to know how much a shop would charge to do the job for you, I'm afraid we can't help. Prices vary widely among stores, and it's iFixit's policy not to recommend service centers. Call around to local repair shops and ask what they charge.
