🔋 Xiaomi’s innovative battery upgrade program, which recently debuted for the Xiaomi 13 series, appears to be making its way to the Xiaomi 14 lineup next. 🚀 A newly spotted network access certification strongly suggests that a high-capacity battery upgrade service is in the works for the Xiaomi 14 Pro.

🔍 What the Certification Reveals

📋 A device carrying the model number 23116PN5BC was recently re-registered for network access approval with Chinese telecom authorities. 🇨🇳 Unsurprisingly, this model corresponds to the Xiaomi 14 Pro.

⚙️ As expected, the core specifications remain unchanged: the phone still boasts a 6.73-inch 1440×3200 display 📱, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 octa-core processor clocked at 3.3 GHz 🧠, RAM configurations ranging from 8GB to 18GB ⚡, and up to 1TB of internal storage 💾.

📝 Xiaomi 14 Pro Battery Upgrade Registration

⚡ However, there is one standout difference in the new filing: the battery capacity. 🔋 While the original Xiaomi 14 Pro launched with a 4,880 mAh typical battery capacity, this newly certified variant lists a 5,000 mAh typical capacity—marking a neat 120 mAh increase. 📈 Interestingly, the rated capacity remains listed at 4,760 mAh for both versions.

🗣️ According to insights from the prominent Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station 🕵️‍♂️, this re-registration serves as a verification step for a device with an expanded battery. This suggests Xiaomi is actively preparing the groundwork for an upcoming battery upgrade service for the Xiaomi 14 series. 🛠️

👣 Following in the Xiaomi 13’s Footsteps

📅 This initiative mirrors a program Xiaomi introduced in April 2026 for the Xiaomi 13 series, which covered the standard Xiaomi 13, 13 Pro, and 13 Ultra. 🔄 Rather than simply replacing an old battery with a fresh one of the same capacity, this program allowed users to swap in physically denser, higher-capacity cells. 🔋

📈 Under that program, the Xiaomi 13’s battery could be bumped from 4,500 mAh to 4,850 mAh, the 13 Pro’s from 4,820 mAh to 5,361 mAh, and the 13 Ultra’s from 5,000 mAh to 5,500 mAh. 💰 Remarkably, this service was priced at just 189 yuan, which covered both the new battery and the labor. 🛠️

👑 Xiaomi 14 Pro

🤝 The Xiaomi 14 series is the logical next candidate for this consumer-friendly service. 📱 Natural battery degradation is one of the primary reasons users feel forced to retire otherwise perfectly functional smartphones. 📉 By offering an official path to not just restore but actually improve battery life, Xiaomi is directly tackling planned obsolescence. ♻️

🇨🇳 Xiaomi has a history of running promotional maintenance campaigns in China, frequently hosting dedicated service weeks throughout the year to offer discounted battery replacements. 🔧 You can read more about Xiaomi’s battery replacement initiatives here. 🔗
