Because all unibody Apple products, from MacBooks to the iPhone, are built sans user-serviceable battery slots, owners of these products must take them into Apple stores for service and part replacement. Comparatively, the 17” MacBook Pro (no longer manufactured) costs $179 for a battery replacement. With the recent release of the MacBook Pro with Retina, Apple has updated the price of battery replacements for the higher-end MacBook from $129 for the 13” and 15” models to $199 for the Retina model.īattery replacements are typically necessary after 2-3 years of extended use on MacBooks, but the newer design of the Retina MacBook is more difficult to open and has a larger battery, thus increasing the price.
