MacBook 12" Core M A1534 (2015–2017) Battery Replacement
Compatible models: A1534, EMC 2746, 2764, 2991, 3099
The MacBook 12-inch A1534 is Apple's thinnest and lightest MacBook, built around a fanless Core M processor and a single USB-C port that handles charging, data and video output simultaneously. The fanless design means the battery absorbs more thermal load than in vented machines. Combined with frequent charge cycles from portable daily use, capacity degrades noticeably over time. A replacement battery restores the full use-anywhere portability that makes this machine worth keeping.
- Turnaround: Same day where possible, subject to stock and workload
- 6-month warranty on the replacement battery
- Walk-in near Liverpool Street Station or use our UK mail-in service
Signs your MacBook 12" battery may need replacing
The Core M processor in the A1534 is power-efficient, but the lack of active cooling and the compact construction mean the battery works harder than it might appear. Typical symptoms appear between three and five years of regular use.
- Battery draining significantly faster than it used to
- Device shutting down unexpectedly, particularly at lower charge percentages
- Only running reliably when connected to power throughout the day
- Battery percentage dropping suddenly or behaving inconsistently
- MacBook running warmer than usual during normal tasks
- Screen lifting slightly from the chassis (can indicate a swollen battery, book as soon as possible)
- USB-C accessories or displays behaving erratically when running on battery alone
- Go to Apple Menu > About This Mac > System Information > Power, then check Cycle Count and Condition
What is included
- Safe removal of the bottom case and existing battery
- Fitting of a quality replacement 39.7Wh battery cell
- Post-repair charging and power stability checks
- Full function test covering power, USB-C charging, keyboard, trackpad and display
- 6-month warranty on the replacement battery
