ASMARK Replacement Battery for MacBook Pro 15-inch A1398 Retina 2013-2015

Quite impressed how straight forward this process was. I thought it would be a nightmare to change a battery in a macbook or require overpriced assistance by apple themselves. The kit comes with everything that's needed minus some alcohol based solution to dissolve the glue. I bought one ahead of time as some of the comments already suggested that. With the solution, removing the old battery and glue residue is pretty easy. Took me maybe 20odd minutes to do the whole process. New battery seems to work absolutely fine, no recognition or compatibility issues. My macbook turned on straight away (mind you it had about 14% life when first turned on) and the warning for maintenance on the battery is gone. Happy days, recommended.

I installed this replacement battery in my MacBook Pro (A1389, Mid-2014) and it’s working really well so far — holds a charge reliably and feels like a noticeable improvement over the old worn-out battery. The video instructions provided were really helpful, making the installation process much easier to follow and reducing any nerves about doing it myself. Everything fit as expected and there were no issues with compatibility. Overall I’m very happy with this purchase and would recommend it for anyone looking to replace an ageing battery in this model.

This is for an older model MacBook, not the easiest to install (thanks for all that adhesive, Apple!) but I only wish this seller was around 5+ years ago. Asmark don't shout about it, but they actually honour a 2 year warranty with their batteries. This is unequalled. I have been buying and installing batteries like this one for my clients for 10+ years, and have not yet found this combination of quality vs value vs customer support vs warranty in any other seller. This battery performs as it should (very good battery life, not a single complaint), at a fraction of the Apple replacement cost, and with a longer warranty! Bravo Asmark. Installation is not to be taken lightly, but the necessary tools are all there, and if you don't have the isopropyl alcohol Asmark have even offered to refund $10 to cover that cost (and have done for all of my orders so far). Not 'easy' to fit, but if done carefully and with a firm, confident hand, you'll be fine. You can always contact me at AppleCore Services in North London to do it for you ;) This is far and beyond the best value I have found on any platform.

The product was exactly as described and works brilliantly. You do need isopropyl alcohol to remove the old batteries and the seller explains inside the packaging that this is difficult to ship so they don't include it. But what they do include is a $10 refund to your Paypal account. I emailed them and they responded quickly and with no hassle sent me $10 to cover costs of this. The instructions to replace the battery that come included are great and have clear pictures for each step. All the tools you need are included. It took me 60 minutes to replace, as described. Most of this time was actually spent on removing the old glue and cleaning the inside of the laptop as I had it open anyway. Installation is pretty easy as long as you follow the instructions and have a gentle hand. I fired up the laptop just now and it's all looking good.

This is the second time I've replaced the battery in this old mid 2015 MacBook Pro after the last Chinese battery died after 14 months and a mere 33 cycles. This Asmark branded one has a 24 month warranty, so hopefully it'll last longer. The actual battery feels good quality, though the battery board itself is a little lumpy and bumpy and looks a bit lower quality than the rest of it. Everything needed to carry out the battery replacement is included except isopropanol for removing the adhesive tape that holds the old battery in place, though there's the usual thank you card in the box that's offering $10? compensation via email to cover the cost of that if needed apparently. Being as I repair electronics as a hobby this battery was fairly straightforward to fit after removing the old dead one that had two swollen cells. The included scraper came in handy for cleaning up any old leftover adhesive tape I soaked in isopropanol. The only real issue I had was bending the wires on the plug to get it to fit, it was stiffer than the video makes it look in my case. All working fine and nice to see the old MacBook power up again. Only time will tell how good the battery is. But in all, good value (actually cost less than the one it's replaced), fingers crossed it lasts beyond the 24 month warranty...

Fairly easy to do. You need to disconnect the battery and trackpad cable before removing the old battery. Put some isopropyl in a plastic syringe and use the yellow card to pry the old battery out and replace with the new one. I did struggle a bit to get the new battery to plug in as the cable is a little longer than the original, I would personally recommend plugging the battery in before putting the battery in place and putting the screws back in but it was fairly easy over all. I chose this one over the other options as the reviews seemed very good and honestly initial impressions are that its a good quality battery. It all switched straight on and charges great + has fixed my error. Its not the cheapest but it seems there is some variation in quality with 3rd party brands and this one comes recommended. From the tests ive ran its stating battery health at 112.1%.

Everything you need contained within the kit along with first class instructions. I too would recommend throughly reading the instructions (plus also watching the video) first. It is a little bit tricky and indeed tedious first carefully removing all the old battery pack(s) - however, it's well worth taking you time and making sure that you properly remove all traces of the old adhesive, thus ensuring the new battery pack is both properly seated and firmly secured. I found the replacement battery to work flawlessly, with no recognition issues and along with a replacement 1tb SSD and a clean install of the OS this has completely transformed my mid 2014 MacBook Pro - all for around £125 (for everything). Depending on your individual needs? this could potentially represent an excellent (environmentally friendly option too!) alternative if like many, you actually do not really need (because you are not going to exploit) the power and capabilities of an 'all singing and dancing' brand new laptop. It all comes down to your personal needs and your budget in the end, but very satisfying to be able to rejuvenate something that was far too good frankly, to be discarded (just yet) imho.....

Perfect for Macbook pro mid-2015, installation took about 45 mins.

I was a little concerned about doing this, even though I'm very handy. This kit came with everything you needed. The three pieces of plastic worked really well for lifting up the batteries. I put a little bit of 90% alcohol to soften the adhesive. Just gave it a little time and worked slowly. Having good glasses, because the screws are very small was very important. I took the old battery to the local E waste facility, I followed the charging instructions, and the unit indicates it has a new battery. Refer to the YouTube videos they're very helpful in giving you the confidence to move forward.

Encaja bien en el ordenador, parece que funciona bien. A esperar como evoluciona con el tiempo, pero de momento la autonomia mucho mejor que con la antigua. Saque la vieja usando un alambre, visto en youtube.

Works as expected, comes with everything you need, apart from - perhaps - the glue remover (get one separately). Screwdrivers, gloves, plastic cards and a handy removal tool. Excellent manual with plenty of pictures to support you in the removal of the old and installation of the new battery.

Komplettes und gut durchdachtes Einbauset für ein MacBook Pro Retina 15“ Mid2015. Die Langlebigkeit des Akku muss sich erst herausstellen. Dazu können leider noch keine Aussagen getroffen werden.

Worked great. Great instructions and I was able to repair my friend’s mid 2014 MBP. Battery charges and holds a charge like the factory battery.
