Apple's line of laptops for professional and power users. To date, the MacBook Pro line includes 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17-inch variants, with major revisions defined by Pre-unibody(Original), unibody, Retina display, Touch Bar, and SOC (system-on-a-chip) designs.

Is ifixit Apple certified?

Or can they at least be trusted with their parts.

Trying to buy a new battery for a MacBook Pro, and want to know if it’s worth it. Has anyone shopped here?

Hi @vijay02 ,

If you are not in the USA (48 contiguous states) then ifixit won’t ship batteries to your destination anyway from their USA store - see battery shipping warnings

Here's a link that perhaps may answer any other questions that you have.

@vijay02 - Your links don't go anywhere! I'm guessing you are in India How about seeing if you can get your battery here BuySnip

Hi @danj

I posted this user with Sarah on meta as possible spam as it seemed strange that the links were only just added and have nothing to do with the question.

Cheers

@jayeff - I think is just a person with limited skills as the links don't really go to a someones product site.

Apple does no certify parts. Parts suppliers are responsible for what they sell.

The real question you should be asking does iFixit stand behind what it sells. They offer a written warranty and when a part has been found to be bad replaced it. Not all suppliers offer that.

The other question you may have, is the battery iFixit sells as good as the original one you have in your system. Personally the system I’m banging on now has a iFixit replacement battery and I haven’t found it any different that what I had before.

Just so you know I’m a retired engineer, which volunteers my efforts here unpaid!

Update (10/19/2020)

There are a few other locations as iFixit has store fronts in the following countries:

Australia

Canada

EU countries

Russia

United Kingdom
