battery replacement

Long story short. Was on trip with my girlfriend. In late December 2023 she got her iPhone 11 battery replaced in official Apple service in Hague. The original battery had all signs of premature death: overheating, only 73% capacity, as well as it was holding charge for 2.5 hours at max. Three...

So here in the Philippines, there are the so-called "authorized" stores such as the PowerMac Center. Special Note: They ship the phone to Singapore's Apple Store after doing a local diagnostic test for repairs etc. Me and my wife inquired to have our iPhone (old SE2020) battery replaced. They...

Hello, I've just installed a new battery on my old macbook pro (early 2015 intel based). I had done this once before with no issues so I felt confident, but this time it did not go as planned. The computer now only works when the charger is plugged in. As soon as it's unplugged, it shuts down...

Hi everyone, I'm kind of in a special situation. I've got a late 2016 MacBook Pro 15" with the most expensive specs (back then) which is still serving me well. However, I've quit my (gamedev-)job recently to pursue creating games on my own. For this, I am going to live off of my savings for at...

Hi all, Title of the thread might be over simplified. I’ve got quite a puzzler with my MacBook Pro 2016 with Touch Bar (15” / i7 2,9 / 16GB / Radeon Pro 460 4GB / 2TB). I sent it to Apple end of July so they can replace the battery. Machine came back a few days later, and I couldn’t...

Hi! Guys I'm facing a problem with a late 2013 Macbook Pro. It's a little hard to explain but I'll try. For some reason my Mac when in sleep mode turns off and won't turn on again. Sometimes if I plug in the power cord and click on it will start working again. Also, if you put in the power...

(Solved: It was as I suspected the battery dying and being replaced meant the video files were saved to a previous wrong date. I eventually found them) :)

Hey everyone, so I got a (possibly common) dilemma regarding replacing my battery in my aging MBP. It's a mid-2010 13 inch unibody model, non-retina version. It still has the original battery when I purchased it from the Apple Store in early 2011 for college, and it has undergone numerous...

I sent my six year-old 2014 MBP into Apple Support (Houston address) for a battery replacement, and it arrived on November 2nd. The Repair Status screen says "Our technicians are working on your product. We'll notify you when the repair has been completed." And then nothing from Apple for....16...

Hi All. I have a battery replacement scheduled for an iPhone 8 and need some clarification on backing up and making certain I have a copy of my stuff. I completed a backup through iTunes to my PC. I understand it’s encrypted so I just can’t pull a single file or note from it. I want to know if...

I need to make a call on this matter in the very near future. I’m immigrating to Canada in a month’s time and need to have this sorted by then. i currently own a X that has served me well for almost 3 years. It however needs a battery replacement now which will set me back about $70 (converted...

Hi Everyone, I recently bought a 2nd-hand Macbook Pro 2012. My previous computer was the same model,I was happy with it because I could replace most of the parts and I thought buying another I could reuse some parts of the old one. The Story: 1 - The computer I bought worked fine but the...

So my MBP is showing the 'Service Recommended' sign. Where I live, we only have any limited options for Apple products and almost always get ripped off. So I thought of getting a relative to buy the battery from some store or website in USA and get it here with him. Apple doesn't manufacture or...

Has anyone else tried this?? Especially on an original Apple watch?? I noticed a prompt on my original Apple Watch Black SS of "charger not supported" last night, I went to take it off the charger and saw the screen was completed dislodged. Right off the bat I suspected the battery since I saw...

My current battery health is at 79%, but I'm slowly seeing that it's starting to drain a bit quickly. Once I charge it, I tend to put the iPhone in Lower Power Mode. I'd like to keep this model as long as I can, would it be wise to have Apple replace the battery? Looking at their website the...

Last week I went to the Apple Store to have the battery of my iPhone 7+ replaced. After three years it was still working perfectly fine, but the battery capacity was down to 81% and clearly not lasting very long anymore. I was considering upgrading to an 11 but dreaded the procedure of getting...

Good Day all, Brand new here, and owner of a New To Me 64GB iPhone 6S. I really like the phone with it's IOS 12. However, the phone has a Battery Health of only 75% and seems to drain pretty quickly with moderate use. So I am thinking of replacing the battery, and have seen a bunch of YouTube...

T I did a battery replacement on my iPad mini2, iOS 10 yesterday and after the second charging cycle, a line on the LCD, spanning between the Home button and the camera has manifested. I did a power down and reboot and the line is still present. I’m including a photo with more details. Can...

bought an ipad mini 2 off ebay…came with a swollen battery (go figure) I paid about $60 for it, the seller offered a partial refund of $40 because he forgot to mention it…so would end up being $20 (a steal) he said he never had a problem with it. i’ve been using it for two weeks now and never...

Hi all, I have a mid 2014 MBP 13 inch as noted above. I started having some unexpected shutdowns and now the computer is showing that it needs a battery replaced. Should I do it at this time or should I go ahead an buy a new one? I had to purchase it after my old 2010 MBP had some mother...
