Replacement battery for 17-inch MacBook Pro

This 11.1V 68Wh lithium-polymer pack replaces the original cell in Apple MacBook Pro 17-inch models such as A1189, A1151, A1212, A1229 and A1261. It is built for owners whose factory battery no longer holds a useful charge and who want a direct drop-in part. Buyers needing a higher-capacity cell or a different form factor will not be served by this unit.

6-cell lithium-polymer construction

The pack uses six polymer cells rated at 68Wh and includes onboard power-surge protection with no memory effect. No cables, tools, adhesives or software are bundled; the battery arrives as a single module ready to seat in the existing compartment. Users who expect a full installation kit or calibration utility must source those separately.

Straightforward swap with model verification

Installation consists of removing the bottom case, disconnecting the old pack and connecting this unit in its place — no soldering or firmware steps are involved. The main risk is ordering the wrong variant; the supplier lists dozens of part numbers including MA458, MA611, MB166 and MA897 families, so confirming the exact model code before purchase avoids a mismatch.
