    • The new, 37 percent friendlier-to-squirrels and tree-frogs MacBook Pro box. Yay for pallet density! Oh, and it's heavier than it looks.

    • Follow our updates on twitter.

  2. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 2, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Old on the left, new on the right.

    • The keyboard is now more similar to the old MacBook than the previous MacBook Pro. While the unibody case is very cool, this is going to make keyboard repair difficult.

    • That screen isn't just glossy, it's a mirror!

  3. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 3, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • New, rounded bottom. And a much darker plastic wireless window.

    • In the box:

    • In an insane move, there is no video adapter included. I don't care if DisplayPort is an industry standard or not, I just paid $2161.92 for a computer that won't plug into any monitor Apple has shipped to date! But Apple is happy to sell you one for $29.00!

    What is the purpose of the "wireless window" on the back of my 15" unibody?

    Apple calls it a 'clutch cover,' but essentially it is just a cosmetic cover to hide the AirPort card, antenna board, and the hinges housed in the display. It is made of plastic presumably to allow for the passage of signals to/from your AirPort card.

    • The holes in the speaker grill are significantly smaller, making the upper case surface feel smoother.

  5. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 5, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Ports, left to right:

    • MagSafe Power Port

    • Gigabit Ethernet Port

    • Firewire 800 Port (FW 400 with optional cable)

    • USB Port X2

    • Mini DisplayPort

    • Audio Line-in , Audio Line-out

    • ExpressCard/34 Slot

    No, it's the beginning of the end for Firewire 400.

    • Removing the battery cover.

    • Aww, look at the cute little Apple logo.

  7. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 7, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Remove one Phillips screw to release the hard drive bracket. The screw is held captive to the bracket.

    • Remove the four T6 screws securing the hard drive.

    • Replacing the hard drive is significantly easier on this machine than the previous MacBook Pro.

    • This machine uses the same, industry standard SATA notebook drives as previous MacBook Pro and MacBook models.

    • Shameless plug: Of course, you can upgrade the hard drive in any Apple laptop. We have free guides for every model that makes hard drive replacement easy.

    • Kudos to Apple for making this easy. Keeping repair costs down is probably the most environmentally friendly thing Apple has done with this machine.

    what type hard drive is apple using?

    Something is missing from this step. There is a Philips screws that secures the plastic bracket to the hard drive. Need a Philips #00 to remove it. Then remove the 4 Torx-6 screws on the side of the hard drive and re-use them on the new hard drive (if you're replacing the hard drive).

    • The first step to opening this machine is removing the bottom plate.

    • Remove the following 8 screws:

    • Let's see what's creating all that torsional rigidity that Jony Ive keeps talking about.

    I'm upgrading RAM and have removed all 8 screws but not touched the HD.

  9. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 9, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • We're inside!

    • Disassembling this laptop is reminiscent of the old PowerBook G4 Titanium models, and very similar to the MacBook Air.

    • You remove the bottom plate, and everything is screwed into the upper case. The case is now Apple's custom-machined unibody enclosure.

    • The interior is cleaner and flows together better than the previous Pro.

    • Cable routing from various parts of the case to the logic board is simpler in this than the new MacBook because Apple had more room to play with.

  10. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 10, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Removing the two 1 GB DIMMs. These chips are a new RAM type for Apple, 1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM.

    • Apple claims this machine maxes out at 4GB RAM, but the Montevina chipset appears to support up to 8GB.

    • Shameless plug: You can upgrade your existing MacBook or MacBook Pro to 4 GB. We'll also be offering the RAM for the new Unibody machines in the near future.

    Hi,

    somebody already tried 8GB? I saw that the new 17" Unibody has an option for 8GB so I am wondering if it is also possible in the 15" Unibody Pro.

    What are the exact specs of the memory module? Is it 1066 6-6-6 or 1066 7-7-7 or the slowest one 1066 8-8-8?

    Thanks for the info.

    • We're going to remove the optical drive next.

    • Disconnect these two connectors.

    The little ribbon being pried is the optical drive; is the other one the airport/bluetooth/iSight cable? I need to disable these things and am looking for the easiest way to do it. I don't yet have a new 15" Macbook Pro because I need to find out before I order it.

    You are correct. The upper cable is what Apple calls the 'camera cable' (leads to the display) and the lower one is the optical drive cable.

    • The optical drive is SATA for the first time. Panasonic model #UJ878A.

    • The superdrive in the last model was ATA, model #UJ857.

    • You can see the different connectors in the middle picture. The new, SATA connector is on top.

    • The rightmost photo is a shot of the new drive label.

    Can you please note if this optical drive is 9mm or 11mm high? Wondering if it is possible to replace with a slot-loading Panasonic Blu-Ray drive...

    • Removing the two cooling fans.

    • Apple has long used a unique fan design with a high number of fan blades. This allows them to achieve moderate airflow with low RPM. The slower the fan spins, the quieter it is.

  17. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 17, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • There are a number of ribbon cables to disconnect from the logic board.

    Can you label the connectors as to what they go to? Where I work we have to disable the iSight and in some cases the wireless interfaces.

  18. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 18, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Remove the following 11 screws:

    • While our circles make it look like there are a lot of screws, this machine appears to have fewer screws than the previous MacBook Pro. These screws all attach directly to the solid-piece upper case, which should simplify maintenance a bit.

  19. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 19, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Removing the logic board.

    • We're noticing a lot of hardware similarities between the MacBook Air, new Macbook, and this MacBook Pro.

    • Apple has taken their new manufacturing approach to heart, and is using the flexibility it provides to standardize as much of their design as possible.

  20. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 20, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • The top of the logic board, with the heatsink still attached.

  21. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 21, afbeelding 1 van 2 MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 21, afbeelding 2 van 2
    • Logic board top with heatsink removed.

    • The large chip on top is the Intel 2.4 GHz Montevina processor. It has 3M L2 cache and a 1066 MHz bus. Markings: 5827B493 SLB4N AV80577P8600

    • The other two large chips are Nvidia graphics chips.

    • We'll post part numbers as we identify them.

  22. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Teardown: stap 22, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Logic board bottom.

    Some of these:

    CY8C24794-24L is a SoC with a lot of bus interfaces, a LOT of analog interfaces and CapSense touch capabilities. This chip is very versatile and function cannot be determined by it's typenumber. It might run fanspeed, touchpad, backlight, temp. sensors and lot of other functions I cannot even think up at the moment.

    RTL8251CA is the 10M/100M/1G bit ethernet chip.

    H5RS5223CFA are the GDDR3 videomemory chips.

    ISL6236 is the power supply controller.

    • Here are the two Nvidia chips! They occupy a significant amount of the logic board. There's no way both of these puppies could fit in a MacBook Air.

    • The first chip is marked 37N3C2 0836B2 PB6623.S03 MCP79MXT-B2. This is the GeForce 9400M, also serving as a northbridge.

    • The second chip is marked U807B034 0827C1 NH7962.01W G96-632-C1. This is the GeForce 9600M GT, which has 32 processor cores and is capable of 120 Gigaflops.

    The 6900M GT is actually smaller than the 9400M.

    So wtf gets my correction of that mistake denied for the third time now?

    Look at the pictures, dude! The larger chip is the 9400M.

    • Remove six 6 mm T-6 Torx screws near the hinge.

    There are also two small hinge parts on top of these six screws that need to be taken off. Big step missing here. Disassembling the hinges and separating the display from lower case is complicated procedure that needs more pictures/directions.

    • Removing the Airport card.

    • Disconnect the antenna connector and the data cable.

    • Remove the two screws.

    • The Bluetooth cable disappears into the display, and our sources tell us that it's sandwiched between the glass and the metal case. This means that if your Bluetooth goes out, you may have to replace the entire display!

    • The "unibody" upper case assembly.

    • This case assembly includes the keyboard, glass trackpad, and ribbon cables.

    • While the manufacturing of the case is sexy, our sources say that Apple is treating this as a single replaceable part. This means that if you break a key on the keyboard, you'll have to replace the entire upper case. That could get very expensive.

    Hello, Is the picture of the lower case assembly is the one that we can buy "as is" on your store ? I mean, nothing missing? I've to change the upper case of my MBP and I'd like to now if I can go to the step 28 and go backward from step 28 to step 1 with my new upper case. Thank you!

    I was unable to find one and ended up replacing the entire case. BTW, I had gone this route before shopping for the replacement -got the backlight panel off and removed all 56 of those screws. I even removed all the keys (using toothpicks and a hemostat), but found the membrane sandwich under the metal frame laminated together. Other than harvesting keys for replacement on another kybd, there's no point breaking it down any further than shown here.

    It's a shame, too, cuz a factory new lower case ends up being $250-$280 depending on the source. The kybd alone should've only been about $50.

    If you're lucky it's some kind of shortcut in the wires. You'd cleanse the keyboard using calcium free water (buy some at your local garage), wash the beer stains off of the keyboard layers and let them dry. Be sure there is no water between the filaments when reattaching the keyboard, you might cause even more severe shortcuts!!

    Another possibility is that the beer corroded the wires, in this case you'll probably see the wires on the filaments turned from silverish to grey/black, in this case you need a replacement keyboard or just live with the current situation.

    How long would you let the keyboard dry for after washing it with the water?

What is the reparability score on this one?

is it possible to replace the memory cage after a spring holder part broke? There are 4 screws but after I took them out it was taking too much pressure to attempt to undo it unless I knew it was supposed to and which way it was supposed to go, Forward, Backward or up? Seems stupid to have to replace the whole logic board just to replace the plastic spring memory holder

I remember when I decide to remove the keyboard for my 2009 13" macbook pro "only for fun" hahaha

so what is the teardown score for this machine? Macbook pro 2009 got 7, so this must be even higher with user swappable battery and hard disk. So at least an 8 or probably even a 9 (but not 10 due to labor required to swap keyboard)? Best macbook pro ever from repair-ability stand point, which Apple is unlikely to ever match again.

We posted this before we started doing repairability assessments, but I’d reckon you’re right and this machine would be around an 8.
