The MacBook Pro computer batteries are being advertised as not being removable. The computer has a unibody design not only keeps the computer in a small size, regulates the computer size but also prevents the battery is not easily replaceable.

To add to that Apple says that the battery is irremovable unless the company does the removing. However, both they are not true. One can replace the battery by themselves, have a repair done by them, or one can have Apple do the replacement for them. Apple can replace the battery which happens to be expensive unless on has a warranty, or have they replace their batteries which is less expensive.

Despite the fact that, the battery in the computer is replaceable, one has to get to the underside of the chassis. The battery remains easy to remove and put back. It is held in three different places on the inside of the case.

The following is the procedure to follow in order to replace the MacBook Pro computer’s battery.
The first step is to identify the laptop computer size to replace the battery in the computer. Even though the 15inch and the 13 inch have similar design, the former computer design has a bigger screen and requires more power.

To have the replacement done, one has to contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider including an Apple retail store or contact the company online. The 17 inch design is in addition a bit more expensive compared to the 15 and 13 inch models. The prices are installation cost inclusive.

Depending on who does the replacements be it the computer owner or the company, one will be needed to either send it through mail or physically take it to any Apple store. Taking it to the Apple store is more advantageous as they do the replacement of the battery on the same day. Sending by mail means they have about three to four days after receiving the battery replaced. The replacement of the batteries varies from one service provider to another.
