Common MacBook Pro 16-inch (M1 Pro / M1 Max, 2021) Repair Issues
XDR Display Damage
The 16.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR is the most expensive laptop screen to replace — any impact damage is a significant repair cost.
Battery for M1 Max GPU Workloads
Running the M1 Max's 32-core GPU continuously for 3D rendering or video encoding depletes the battery fast and accelerates degradation.
Fan Noise
The A2485 has active cooling with dual fans. Fan noise increase from dust accumulation is common after 2–3 years of use.
Thunderbolt Port Wear
Three Thunderbolt 4 ports can develop intermittent connectivity from repeated connector insertion and extraction.
