All I can say is thank you! My MacBook was ready to explode, Apple didn't carry the battery any more and I wasn't sure what to do. After watching your video several times I was convinced with your guidance, I could do this. Did it today and it went smooth as silk. No more puffy battery case. No more overheated laptop. You are an excellent instructor and your step by step instructions with video snippets were perfect for me. I'm an older adult and not very computer savvy but very technically inclined. This was perfect. Thanks Again John
Thanks so much for this! I also liked the music in the background- I was half-watching this while replacing my battery, checking back for those specific little details- prying the adhesive is really the most difficult part! 😂l really appreciated the reset actions you showed at the end. Other videos mentioned nothing about that, well- most of them said “take to Mac store” and I just saved myself at least $200 by doing this on my own! Thanks again!
Thank you. Your step by step instructions we right on target. I'm just a n average Joe with no computer repair knowledge, opening the cover of a computer is usually "scary" but following you tutorial to the dot and was able to successfully replace the dead battery which had expanded drastically. The expanded battery would always wobble when on a flat surface. Cheers! All fixed. Thank you very much!
Just wanted to say thank you. Heading into this process, I had no idea what I was doing, and-within just one hour-my MacBook Pro and I are all set. Invaluable tutorial!
My wife's MBP 15 retina from mid 2015 was working only plugged. I ordered iFixit battery pack and followed your video tutorial. It was sooo easy. Believe me: I use no drop of glue remover (basically alcohol) to remove the old battery pack. Dental floss is your best friend. Thanks Kamil & thanks iFixit 😎
Thank you for this man. Followed your instructions and my mac is running great. The one mistake I made was to push the small black track pad connector tab up instead of clamping it down with my finger. I panicked because my track pad and keyboard weren't working when I booted up. I ran through your steps again and noticed my mistake. Your instructions were perfect, just posting just as a warning to everyone else. Appreciate it!
I just changed my MacBook battery with this tutorial. Definitely have floss and Goo Gone in hand. It is much easier than I thought. Just be careful when lifting connectors or the latch of the trackpad cable (understand and see what you are doing). Thank you again for this well explained tutorial
Just followed this guide! Literally had it in front of my macbook I was fixing, and every step was exactly as you mentioned. One tip I think helped me, is I used some adhesive/velcro to fix the macbook to the work surface, so that when I used floss and string, the macbook didnt slide. Thank you for this!
My battery was barely holding a charge. When I opened it, it looked exactly like in this video. I followed your steps exactly and now I have a brand new working battery! Thank you so much, this video was very helpful.
Just wanted to stop and say that your video was so thorough and well done. Your camera work and explanations throughout were impecable. I was able to follow along today and successfully swap my battery. Thank you!
hello, i have macbook pro 2015 a1398. my macbook suddenly shut down when i charge and won't to turn on. when i charge the light isn't not turn to green or orange, should i just replace the battery or anything else broken on my macbook?
This helps allot thank you! I like the fact that you clean the glue off very well you’re also really careful! Most videos they don’t do as good of a job.
I don't know what I was thinking but I used my 9" diving knife to remove the old battery, it's all I had. I just dug that thing out like an ingrown toenail...I was afraid the trackpad was no longer going to work...fortunately for me everything worked! if you're reading this,DO NOT do what I did!! I guess the girl I was doing it for bought the cheaper battery because it only came with a couple of screwdrivers...took about 10 minutes but it's working fine, thanks for your help and I promise if I would have the right tools I would've done it just like you did..😅
Very, very helpful video, Kamil. Thank you. I've just replaced the battery on my A1398 following your tutorial which I found clear and accurate. I do not believe I could have done it without you.
Dang! NICE job Kamil!! I easily changed my battery and got my laptop going with your excellent tutorial! Thank you and keep rockin these helpful episodes!
Thanks Kamil, great video and info especially about the resetting etc. Laptop totally fixed now. I used a London Oyster card and nail varnish remover to deal with the adhesive. One point though. It wasn't obvious to me that the battery should be at 0% before starting and this info only comes at about 3'45" in the video after quite a bit of disassembly. Noobs watch out!
I'm happy that you found the video somewhat useful! And thanks for the feedback about the battery charge.. i didn't realise that i mentioned it so late in the video.. I am gonna have to add some caption.
Fantastic video. Each step clearly demonstrated. Followed it and it worked perfectly. Thank you very much. Like your interesting collection of camera in the back ground.
Great tips on here (holding back cover down as to not launch screws from cover pressure from battery). I found using thin card dabbed in isopropyl also to worked fairly quickly (works to get alcohol on adhesive). Thank you!
Make sure that you pushed the battery connector all the way in.. did you get you new battery from iFixit? if yes you can massage them maybe the battery is faulty..
Im sorry to hear that mate.. are you sure you connected the trackpad cable? It’s responsible for both trackpad and keyboard so it’s probably not connected correctly or you need to replace it
You just saved me £220 for a shitty battery replacement at the repair salon. They changed my battery in 2020 and it was swollen after 1.5 years! I doubt it was a good quality battery as the original one lasted for over 5 years. We will see how long this one will last for but even if the same amount of time as the previous one I prefer to pay half of the price.
@@matixscott1716quite well. Depending on what I am doing, on high cpu usage like editing or recording it lasts for 2 hours. Otherwise with normal work around 5 hours.
Yeah it helps to cut the glue under the battery.. in the newer models of MacBook they used sticky tapes that you can remove by pulling the tabs however i also miss the good old days when you could just open the laptop unscrew 4 bolts and remove the battery.. the only thing was that the laptops were 30 cm thick xD

Im glad i could help and thanks for the velcro tip thats cleaver! :)
You are a lifesaver! I followed everything to the T and noticed that I ripped the touchpad cable.

This video is amazing! Im about to replace mine with much confidence. Very appreciative of your work.
Im glad to hear that! :)
Thank you! Took me about 2 hours but got it done thanks to your video. Cheers
2 hours is a good time for that repair! :D
Thanks for this great tutorial. I got my old battery out and a new battery in easily.

Thanks so much. Great instructions. PowerBook now charging without bulging battery! Much appreciated. 😊
Could you please share the duration of the battery life you've experienced with the iFixit battery on your 15" 2015 MacBook Pro?
Clear,concise and easy to follow. Nicely filmed and narrated. Well done and many thanks for your enthusiasm and time...
oh.. thank you for your kind feedback! I am very pleased that you found my content helpful! :)

That’s awesome, very happy I could help!
Thank you so much! I just followed your tutorial step by step and it works! Thank you!!
Thank you so much. Followed this video and successfully changed my battery with no issues 🤙🏾❤️
Congratulations!
This is the WORST instructional I have ever seen.@@KK-VLOG
Methodical and easy to follow. Thank you!

Thanks you! I’m very happy that you found the tutorial helpful! I love vintage cameras.. I will definitely make a video about them too 😊
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! This was an excellent guide.
Omg awesome video man. Thanks
Great tips on here (holding back cover down as to not launch screws from cover pressure from battery). I found using thin card dabbed in isopropyl also to worked fairly quickly (works to get alcohol on adhesive). Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your method I will try it out next time!
How fast does the iFixIt battery degrade compare to the original Apple battery? And how many hours can I expect on a single charge?
Damn, Apple really made something that should be so simple, so difficult.
Thank you!!
GREAT TUTORIAL!!!
Aren't those black tabs on front of the battery to pull the it loose? Like in an iphone ?
Instead of using dissolver etc?
I think there might be something like that in the newer models of MacBook.. 2015 Retina battery change is a painful process :D
Hi, I have an x on my battery after replacing it and whenever I remove the charger, it turns off. I can only run my MacBook on the charger.
Make sure that you pushed the battery connector all the way in.. did you get you new battery from iFixit? if yes you can massage them maybe the battery is faulty..
Yes, I make sure there’s no gap on the battery connector
Man, I followed this to the letter, and now my keyboard and track pad don't work... 😢
Im sorry to hear that mate.. are you sure you connected the trackpad cable? It’s responsible for both trackpad and keyboard so it’s probably not connected correctly or you need to replace it

Hows the battery holding up after a year of use ?
@@matixscott1716quite well. Depending on what I am doing, on high cpu usage like editing or recording it lasts for 2 hours. Otherwise with normal work around 5 hours.
Gods, I hate apple. This is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Dental floss gets involved!?
