I got a paper receipt and waited - and only two week days later I got an email and picked up my computer that day without ANY extra charge or hassle or even an appointment (which has always been problematic for me at Apple Stores). I went to iStore late afternoon on the Friday before Labor Day weekend with an appointment, and they found my warrantee in less than 30 seconds (meaning I did not have to pay for repairs besides water damage) and pledged they would get it fixed ASAP despite the long weekend being challenging to order parts from factories. I had no Apple Care and was terrified I would have to purchase a new computer, especially after Best Buy told me they are not authorized to fix Macs. This year I bought a 2017 open box laptop from Best Buy that started to malfunction for no reason. I have lived here for 3 years and gone to Apple Store SoHo location for repairs and struggled to get Genius Bar appointments and good customer service. IStore is best Apple repair in Lower Manhattan! Never again, just go straight to Apple for any type of repair. While Retina displays are measured by pixel density and screen resolution, it really comes down to how.
I relayed the price difference to the technician and claimed that he can’t do anything about the pricing as this is set by the owner. MacBook Pro 13 Retina, A1502, A1425, 2012-2015. Going to this shop is like going to an auto shop where they are on a trip to inflate the price. Their diagnostic test revealed that the battery is old, and I have to pay $97 for that? Suspicious of the pricing, I called Apple and a customer support staff named Anamaya, claimed for my macbook the price to replace it cost $129 with no service Charge. MacBook Pro 13 inch Early 2015, early 2016, early 2017 MacBook. They called me back 3-4days later and claimed the battery needs changing and front panel for $249 and service fee of $157.50 for a total $406.50. This eGPU enclosure delivers up to 500W of power to the GPU and 100W to charge your Mac, ideal for use with the 15-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. Heres a list of models still in the Apple replacement plan (depending on the purchase date). He also claimed, the price will be the same if I brought it to apple store for repair. Now with a 2560 x 1600 native resolution, you can see more of your high-resolution images onscreen with pixel-for-pixel accuracy. Display Retina display 13.3-inch (diagonal) LED-backlit display with IPS technology 2560-by-1600 native resolution at 227 pixels per inch with support for. The pixel density is so high your eyes wont be able to discern individual pixels.
Paid the $97 diagnostic fee ( that will be subtracted if I agree to continue with whatever fault and repair they will find and charge for it), the lone person (who has the personality of a dead person) also offered additional $50 to expedite the process as he claimed there are lots of repairs they’re doing (I declined). The 13.3' display of this MacBook Pro features over 5 million pixels.
As the battery indicated “needs servicing”.
