A1990 Battery Replacement FAQ
How much does MacBook Pro A1990 battery replacement cost?
MacBook Pro A1990 battery replacement starts from $249 at iTech Repairs. Includes lifetime warranty.
Why does the A1990 battery drain faster than 13-inch models?
The A1990 runs an Intel Core i7/i9 plus AMD Radeon Pro GPU — far more power-hungry than 13-inch models. Battery degradation is more noticeable during GPU-intensive work.
Will battery replacement fix thermal throttling on the A1990?
Thermal throttling in the A1990 is primarily a cooling issue (heat), not a battery issue. A new battery won't resolve throttling caused by blocked vents or failing fans.
How long does A1990 battery replacement take?
2–3 hours at Braybrook or Spotswood. Same-day in most cases.
Is lifetime warranty included with A1990 battery replacement?
Yes — lifetime warranty on the replacement battery and all labour.
