Is MacBook Battery Replacement Worth It?
For MacBooks under 6 years old, battery replacement is almost always worth it. A new battery at AED 300-500 restores your MacBook to its original battery life. Buying a new MacBook costs AED 3,500-8,000. The maths is straightforward.
For MacBooks over 7 years old, check with us first — we will assess whether other components also need attention before recommending replacement.
