MacBook Pro Battery Replacement (Early 2011 to Mid 2012)

Depending on the model of MacBook Pro you own, replacing the battery can be super easy or incredibly difficult and time-consuming. The best, least stressful (but more expensive) choice is to take the device in for repair, especially if it's still under warranty, but it is also possible to do it yourself.

The specific steps you need to follow to replace a MacBook Pro battery will vary depending on which model you have. Newer versions of the laptop often have their batteries glued into the case, and you'll need to remove that adhesive to get the component out and then replace it when you install the new one.

Once you’ve identified your MacBook Pro model, you can search for “MacBook battery replacement” on a site like iFixit for instructions. If you decide to tackle this job yourself, be sure to read the instructions for your specific model carefully to avoid damaging other components. This may also convince you that it’s easier to have someone else do it.
