Inleiding

"Love is in the MacBook Air" en we hebben een gloednieuwe MacBook PRo 13" Touch Bar 2017 om voor te vallen. Wat is er nieuw, geleend, en blauw in deze MacBook Air killer opvolger? We zullen 'm moeten demonteren om hier achter te komen.

Wil je meer van ons horen, dan verbaast ons dat niets. Je kunt ons onder meer volgen op Instagram, Twitter en Facebook.

    • De geur van een nieuwe Mac, je moet ervan houden, maar hoe nieuw is deze Pro? Laten we eens kijken naar alle specs:

    • 13.3" LED-backlit IPS Retina-scherm met 2560 x 1600 resolutie (227 dpi), P3 wide kleurenpalet

    • 3.1 GHz Kaby Lake dual-core Intel Core i5 (Turbo Boost tot 3.5 GHz)

    • 8 GB aan 2133 MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM

    • 256 GB PCIe-based SSD

    • Geïntegreerde Intel Iris Plus Graphics 650

    • Vier Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) poorten en 3.5 mm hoofdtelefoonpoort

    • 802.11ac Wi-Fi en Bluetooth 4.2

    • Met dank aan onze ervaringen uit het verleden hebben we de aanstotelijke zuignap-wrikker-schuif manoeuvre al onder de knie en weten we deze laptop dus in een mum van tijd te openen.

    • Nu de oester is geopend en de parel eindelijk zichtbaar is, worden we overvallen door een déjà-vu.

    • Vergelijk de MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar 2017 (de tweede foto)...

    • ...met de MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar 2016 (derde foto).

    • Eigenlijk lijkt het erop dat vrijwel alles hetzelfde is, tot aan de 49.2 Wh batterij toe.

    • Het enige verschil dat ons wel opvalt is de afwerking van de ventilatoren. Het lijkt erop dat de 4K iMac een goede nieuwe verfbeurt heeft gekregen.

    Poor man's suction cup: wide packing tape works great to make a temporary handle to pull up on the case.

    • We houden er altijd van om onderdelen uit een toestel te halen om deze te transformeren in goede snorren. Dit zijn de geheimen aan de binnenkant:

    • Intel Core i5-7267U processor met Intel Iris Plus Graphics 650

    • Intel® JHL6540 Thunderbolt™ 3 controller

    • SanDisk SDRQKBDC4 064G 64 GB NAND flashgeheugen (x2 voor een totaal van 128 GB aan deze kant van het bord)

    • Samsung K4E6E304EB-EGCG LPDDR3 DRAM (4 x 2 GB voor een totaal van 8 GB)

    • Texas Instruments SN650839 72C27RNGI en TI/Stellaris LM4FS1EH SMC Controller (vervangende codenaam voor TM4EA231)

    • H9CKNNN4GTATMR-NTH

    • Murata/Apple 339S00056 Wi-Fi-module

    how did you remove the heatsink?

    • Aan de andere kant vinden we het volgende:

    • 2x SanDisk SDRQKBDC4 64 GB NAND flashgeheugen (zoals we ook vinden in de 2016 Escape Edition's verwijderbare SSD)—wat het totaal op 256 GB brengt.

    • APL1023 343S00736 (waarschijnlijk is dit de custom Apple T1 chip die gecombineerd is met de Touch Bar) en (Apple?) 338S00193-A1 17148HDK

    • 2x Texas Instruments TI CD3215C00 68C7QKW G1

    • Intersil 95828 HRTZ X708FGK

    • Texas Instruments HD3SS215 6.0 Gbps HDMI DisplayPort 2:1/1:2 Differential switch

    • Macronix MX25L6473EZNI-10G Serial Flashgeheugen

    • NXP 66V10 NFC controller, welke een Secure Element 008 en NXP PN549 (die we ook in de iPhone 6s vonden) bevat

    I just got one of these with apparent liquid damage to the SSD modules area—the computer is dead as a doornail, no signs of life. I see ifixit sells mustaches—er, motherboards—for this model (used), but there is no replacement guide. I'm wondering if it would be worth trying to replace that. This is still a perfectly viable model MacBook Pro otherwise, despite being officially vintage.

    • De MacBook Pro 13" met Touch Bar krijgt van ons 1 van de 10 punten op onze repareerbaarheidsschaal (10 is het gemakkelijkst te repareren):

    • Het trackpad kan worden verwijderd zonder dat de batterij eerst moet worden verwijderd.

    • Propriëtaire pentalobe-schroeven blijven het repareren van de laptop onnodig bemoeilijken.

    • De batterijmodule is in z'n geheel, en niet onverdienstelijk, in de behuizing vastgelijmd, wat vervanging bemoeilijkt.

    • De processor, RAM en het flashgeheugen zijn vastgesoldeerd aan het logic board.

    • De Touch Bar voegt een tweede, moeilijk te vervangen en makkelijke te beschadigen scherm toe.

    • De Touch ID-sensor werkt ook als een aan-/uitknop en is gecombineerd met de T1 chip op het logic board. Het repareren van een kapotte aan-/uitknop kan speciale hulp van Apple, of een nieuw logic board vereisen.

Also, good luck getting your data off of those pci-e style hard drives.

There is a special boot mode in which the Mac basically acts like a network connected drive (NAS)

Mining15 -

I'll stick with my repairable and upgrade friendly MacBook Pro 2012 thanks.

Apple lost a winning edge when they removed user serviceable from their vernacular.

Justin -

I’m inclined to agree.

This will very likely be my last Mac.

When did Apple decide to play games like MS used to?

Corey DeLasaux -

That 2012 MacBook Pro was my very favorite. I'm still using my old one as a second computer.

colleenthompson -

You should do an in-depth analysis of they new keyboard, and see if there are actual structural differences between the 2016 keyboard and the new 2017 one, and if so provide some pictures.

Johannes -

I would LOVE this!!!

beezermigs -

There is NFC chip on Mac? I didn't see that in 2016 RMBP13. So I guess these should be NFC chip on 2017 RMBP 15 as well?

Justin -

I guess the NXP 66V10 is there for the secure element (to hold keys for payment security & maybe vault etc.), rather than NFC.

Eric Coetzee -

Very interested in whether the 2017 keyboard is different to the 2016 version. I had to return mine (and 2 CRUs) because keys kept sticking. Really hoping the mechanism might be updated!

Jammy -

In MBP Esc-Edition 2017 flash memory are soldered also?

2016 - removable.

Marcin -

This time again I will keep my MBP late 2008 unibody and I will not spend my $$ for this un-repairable too expensive 2017 laptop

Mike -

Can someone confirm if the SSD is removable and that it can be replaced with a bigger version?

Peace Freak -

The SSD is composed of Apple proprietary SSD controller and four NAND Flash chip that are soldered on the main board. It is not removable. The SSD can support larger capacity with higher density NAND Flash chip. Larger capacity support is an option when end user order it. End user can not change it.

JJ Wu -

Can you also show how to replace a new display for the Touch Bar laptop?

Chandrashekar H S -

这个只能算是入门级的拆解吧?

现代的苹果笔记本很难修也不能换配件。用这个网站的向导有很多让你可以自己diy。可惜这台苹果笔记本貌似没有能自己做的

beau danner -

The funny connector to nowhere is the connector to tap into the SSD. When the Apple connector is mounted (as supplied) it connects the CPU to the SSD. When removed the signals for the SSD can be accessed.

harald -

Only an idiot would buy this crap.

Paolo -

wish ppl stop buying those new crap, so apple knows they are fking with us.

Liangshi Xu -

I just hope apple starts using cherry mx switches for the keyboard soon. That and/or put rbg would make me happy.

EpicDonut Productions -

wanted to upgrade my 2009y MacBook Pro ….. but this “solid” non upgradable,non fixable brick, even battery is glued like”once it go old - you go and buy new laptop” … sorry apple,not this time

Neo G -

Unbelievable, but camera failure requires screen replacement -> 1000 USD/€… :-(

(MPB end 2016, 15”, Touch Bar)

Philippe Annet -

Is there any way to upgrade the SSD in the 13 inch 2017 Macbook Pro?

Finn Arnold -

No way, it’s embedded into the logic board.

konglik -

Hi I would like to ask you a question, just above the speakers there are 2 Flex cables on the motherboard. In the opening maneuver the more external one on the right side (looking at the motherboard from above) I would like to know what it is, because I saw that in the left part always above the speakers there are the same 2 Flex cables. The MacBook works but I can not figure out what I broke in the opening.

Giavomo -

So how do I upgrade my memory to 1 terabyte?

tonytrilex -

You don't.

I assume you're talking about storage and not memory. For years the best advice for anyone shopping for a Mac has been to configure-to-order as much storage as you can possibly afford.

Can I upgrade the ssd and ram in MacBook Pro 2017 without Touch Bar

Omar -

I have a working HDD in an otherwise dead 2017 Touch Bar MBPro. Is there any way to remove the HDD and mount it so I can backup? Thank you!!!!

My MacBook Pro 2017, A1706 don’t recognize my firmware password blocked with black screen and padlock

rasheath almaboudi -

“ The Touch ID sensor doubles as the power switch, and is paired with the T1 chip on the logic board. Fixing a broken power switch may require help from Apple, or a new logic board”

actually you can replace the Power Button / Touch ID . Power button will work but not Touch ID

Amol Dahe -

Hello, I have an issue with my MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar 2017 , the keyboard stop responding, but the touch bar and the trackpad are working perfectly. I took it back to apple store but it will cost me £570 ( cos is out of warranty) so I declined the repaired.. I can repaired it by myself but I don’t know what repair parts to purchase from here. Any suggestions will be appreciated . Thank you.

zachariasl -

Bluetooth keyboard.

Hi. I have the 3.1Ghz i5 version of this MBP. Aside from it being difficult to work on, is there any reason I can't swap out the logic board and replace it with the 3.5Ghz i7 logic board? Has anyone tried this? A faster processor, double the RAM and HD capacity. This particular A1706 has the 4 USB-C ports. Is it worth the time and effort? I'd love to hear back from you about this.

Anthony Aquilato -

i have two broken macbook , 2018 (battery fail) and 2017 (water damage). Do you think i can switch my 2018 main board to 2017 and still get it running?
