Description
This is an original internal battery replacement designed for the MacBook Pro 15-inch Retina Mid 2012, Early 2013, and Late 2013 models with regulatory model number A1398 (MacBookPro10,1 / MacBookPro10,4 / MacBookPro10,5). These early Retina 15-inch units share the same internal battery specification.
Mid 2012 through Late 2013 A1398 models use Apple battery model A1417 — a 95 Wh integrated lithium-polymer pack. Replacement is typically required when the battery no longer holds charge, drains quickly, shows a Service Battery warning, or swells. Professional installation is strongly recommended.
Mid 2014 and Mid 2015 A1398 units use a different battery (A1494 / A1618) and are not compatible with this listing.
