What Affects the Cost
M1 or M2 battery
The A2337 M1 Air and the A2681 M2 Air use different battery packs. We match the exact genuine Apple battery to your model number.
Battery health and swelling
A worn battery is a straightforward swap. A swollen battery has to be removed carefully, and we check the trackpad and board underneath for damage before closing the Mac.
Standalone battery or top case
On Apple Silicon MacBooks the battery is a standalone part. On many Intel models Apple bonds it to the top case, so the repair can involve more of the assembly.
