Screen Repairs

Equivalent to the newer models of MacBook Air, the LED panel just isn't accessible separately. This implies that to replace a cracked or damaged screen, the entire upper section will have to be replaced. The price from the replacement will vary based on the problem. When the screen is physically damaged or suffered from a liquid spill, the replacement price will be higher than in the event the screen suffers from a element failure outdoors from the warranty period.

In the event the unit is undamaged and nevertheless beneath the Apple warranty, the upper section is usually replaced under AppleCare at no charge.
Logic Board Repairs & Replacements

The logic board for the new Retina MacBook Pros is also related towards the current generation of Airs. The RAM is soldered towards the logic board so upgrading the board just to get much more RAM would not be expense effective.

If the logic board is replaced due to element failure, only the exact same board with the same processor and RAM will probably be offered for exchange. When the board has suffered from a liquid spill, your Apple Authorized Service Provider may be able to repair the board. In the event that the board cannot be repaired and the repair is not covered beneath AppleCare, they can order a replacement board from Apple in any processor speed/RAM combo.

SSD Upgrades

The SSD is a separate card that can be replaced under AppleCare. Only the same exact capacity SSD may be exchanged with Apple. If you wanted to get a bigger SSD card, it would make fiscal sense to wait and see if 3rd party cards come out in the future.

Battery & Case Replacements

Here's where the new MacBook Pro gets a little tricky. The top case, trackpad and battery are all treated as one unit. This means that to replace one component, you have to replace them all. For repairs that are covered below AppleCare this is actually good, as you'll be getting a new battery if say the trackpad fails. In the event the repair will not be covered beneath warranty "i.e. liquid spill and some keys stop working," the entire top case/battery assembly will have to be replaced.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I/O Boards, Fans and Speakers

There is a separate I/O board that houses the DC-IN and left side ports. So if say your audio jack stops working or is damaged, this board might be replaced separate from the logic board. The newly designed fans are also available for replacement. We'll need to have to see how well they hold up over time, but so far they seem very solid.

Another first for the Retina MacBook Pro is the way the speakers work. Apple strongly advises replacing both speakers when one fails. The speakers are paired and the syncing may be off if they are replaced independently.

AppleCare and Warranty Service

The new Retina MacBook Pro is great to use, but difficult and expensive to repair. We highly recommend getting AppleCare when purchasing this unit, and some Apple Authorized Service Providers can perform both AppleCare and out-of-warranty repairs for these models.
