Replacement battery for MacBook Pro 15 Retina A1398

This new FOCUSTEC lithium-polymer battery replaces Apple part numbers A1494 and A1618 in MacBook Pro 15 Retina A1398 models from late 2013, mid 2014 and early 2015. It is intended for owners whose original pack no longer holds a useful charge and who want a direct swap without modifying the chassis.

8440 mAh capacity and 1500-plus cycle rating

The cell delivers 8440 mAh at 11.26 V for 95.03 Wh, matching the factory specification for typical daily workloads such as web browsing, document editing and media playback. Runtime will fall short for sustained heavy loads like video rendering or virtual machines that drain the pack faster than the rated capacity can sustain.

Included screwdrivers and installation guide

Two precision screwdrivers and a printed instruction sheet let most users complete the replacement without sourcing extra tools. The guide covers the specific screw layout of the A1398 bottom case; builders who lack confidence in delicate ribbon-cable handling or who need adhesive strips for the battery frame will still require additional supplies.
