Many rates appear (fairly) charitable! Others, not a lot. You can’t simply change your very own battery or key-board on a MacBook Pro, for instance! You need to purchase the whole leading cover that features that as well as various other components preattached, as well as it’ll cost you greater than two times the $199 that Apple fees for a battery substitute. Apple didn’t instantly react to an ask for remark.
And while you can change simply the battery on your 2020 M1 MacBook Air, you’ll need to invest $39 — the very same rate as a complete collection of keycaps — to change damaged secrets on your feature row. That may be because Apple ships 7 collections of Fn keycaps at once:
That’s a great deal of feature row keycaps.
The motherboard rates are specifically intriguing. Not just will Apple not let you upgrade to a higher-end board however additionally the firm is significantly incentivizing you to return the initial component. It anticipates you to outline as long as $4,222 for a brand-new reasoning board — ouch at having that on my bank card — however you’ll obtain the huge bulk of it back upon return. You ought to end up paying $588 for a 16-inch MacBook Pro board, $500 for a 14-inch or 13-inch MBP board, or $368 for an M1 Air board, despite just how packed it is.
