NewerTech NuPower 85 Watt-Hour Replacement Battery for 15-inch MacBook Pro Unibody (2011 - 2012) Reviews

4.9 Rating 85 Reviews
Forget the inferior and untrustworthy ones off eBay. This battery is excellent. I installed this battery after the original could no longer hold charge. A simple process for someone who can hold a screwdriver. All the required tools were included, but the instructions were a little thin. I recommend you head to iFixit for the instructions to use with this kit. Also remember to calibrate your battery meter by flattening your battery, uninterrupted (do not charge a bit and then discharge) until the computer powers off. Then charge it full, uninterrupted. Do this at least twice. It's a highly recommended battery. The battery life is now better than when it was new.

Thank you so much for your kind words and thank you for shopping with us! We're very happy to have you as a customer. My name is Robert, I am the owner of Macfixit Australia and I was hoping that if you had a little more time and if it was not too much trouble perhaps you could also leave a note of your positive experience under the Product Reviews webpage for us as well. We find that unless we ask our customers, we very rarely have any positive notes left under the Product Reviews page and it certainly helps other potential customers in the decision making to determine if they should purchase from us. If you left your positive note I would very much appreciate it.

Tools provided, instructions clear and in under 10 minutes my trusty old workhorse (2012 MacBook Pro 15 - which was down to 60% of original battery capacity from new) rides again ... with better-than-new battery capacity. This is a great product ! Thanks MacFixit :-) Just bought a similar kit for my walkabout Mac Air :-)

I cannot speak more highly of this company. Having a couple of issues with Mac Batteries (On my side) they went above & beyond to help & provide fantastic customer service. My order arrived & was exactly as described and the quality of the battery & time the battery lasts for seems great!

First battery was faulty and the laptop ran for only 1.5hrs. It was replaced with some delay and now all is good.

Battery is working very well. I have been suing it for last month. The team is very responsive, friendly and most importantly helpful.

Although a slight delay with back-order issues, the battery once arrived was swapped out of my 2011 Macbook no problems at all. Following the reset procedure, I have gone from less than an hour on battery to over 10 hours. More than happy!
