Overview
What this part is
The loudspeaker in the Xiaomi Redmi 5 sits at the bottom of the phone and plays ringtones, alarms, media and speakerphone calls. Drops, water and dust in the grille can damage it, so sound becomes quiet, distorted or stops.
This is not the earpiece you hold to your ear on calls. Before replacing it, clean the grille gently and check the volume and Do Not Disturb settings. If sound is still poor, the loudspeaker needs replacing.

How to check your model

The Redmi 5 has a 5.7-inch screen. The Redmi 5 Plus is larger at 5.99 inches, so check the name carefully.
Professional installation
How a technician fits this part
- Power the phone off.
- Remove the SIM tray, then release the back cover carefully with a thin pick, warming the edges first if it is glued.
- Remove the screws and inner cover at the bottom, then disconnect the battery.
- Lift out the old loudspeaker from the Redmi 5 and fit the new one so it sits flat and makes contact.
- Refit the cover and screws, then reconnect the battery.
- Test ringtones, media and speakerphone, then close the phone.
Check that the part matches the device before fitting it or removing any adhesive backing. Once a part has been fitted, it cannot be returned for a change of mind. Faulty parts are always covered.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Will this fit my Redmi 5?
Yes, if Settings › About phone shows Redmi 5. It does not fit the Redmi 5 Plus, Redmi 5A or any other model.
Does it fit the Redmi 5 Plus?
No. The Redmi 5 Plus is a larger phone with a different internal layout. This part is for the Redmi 5 only.
Will this fix the sound on normal calls?
Not usually. Normal calls use the earpiece at the top of the phone. This loudspeaker handles ringtones, media and speakerphone.
Is it made by Xiaomi?
No. It is a brand new, OEM-quality loudspeaker made to fit the Xiaomi Redmi 5, and it is tested before dispatch.
Should I fit it myself?
We recommend professional installation. The back cover must be removed carefully and the battery disconnected first.
