![]() ![]() Unfortunately, the only user-replaceable part is the battery, so there's no way to upgrade any components later on. The keyboard feels comfortable and doesn't cause fatigue over time, its haptic touchpad is large and responsive, and the webcam's video quality is outstanding. Apple's M1 Pro and M1 Max SoCs can handle demanding workloads like video editing and 3D animation, and thanks to their incredible power efficiency, the battery lasts over 12 hours of light productivity and 9 hours of video playback. It also has a wide color gamut, making it suitable for content creators. Its sharp Mini LED display can ramp up the refresh rate adaptively up to 120Hz to make motion appear smoother, and it can produce deep blacks and bright highlights to deliver a fantastic HDR experience. It looks nearly identical to its bigger brother, the Apple MacBook Pro 16 (2021), and it feels equally well-built with a full aluminum chassis. Heres a pic of the screw after being ground away, as you can see the head of the screw is no longer there and you can just lift off the case.The Apple MacBook Pro 14 (2021) is a premium laptop available with Apple's M1 Pro and M1 Max SoCs (System on a Chip). The only downside in the long run is that there is now 1 screw which cant be removed, as it dosnt have a screw head, but its only 1 of 10 so i dont think its that a big deal.īe warned though this is a last resort, and not to be taken lightly, i really wouldn't recommend it to any one as the likeliness of breaking your machine is very high, i think i just got lucky. My approach was to grind away the head of the screw which worked pretty well, what you've got be careful with is the heat this will make and also the vibration so do it in tiny 1 second bursts and let it cool each time, after about 10 or 20 little bursts i grinded away the screw head and most of the surrounding laptop case (i purchased a replacement online prior to doing this as i thought i might break it seeing that the screw was countersunk).Įither way i did this and got the case off, replaced the RAM, screwed down the new bottom cover and booted up the machine. ![]() I bought off amazon this Dremel but the cutting disks where to large for the screw, after searching for fine metal cutting disks i decided that id just use the stock one that came with the Dremel, which i believe is for wood, but anyway. This is what i ended up doing, after taking it to the apple store and them battling with it for an hour to no avail - i tried this approach listed on IFIXIT - which didnt work out entirely to plan, but still achieved a similar result. ![]()
