Please advise our staff why you are looking to replace the battery – as your issue may not be related to the battery itself. We do not advise replacing your battery unless health is 75% or less.
Battery Degradation Over Time
MacBook batteries, like all lithium-ion batteries, degrade over time due to chemical aging. This natural process results in reduced battery capacity and shorter usage times between charges. Apple designs its batteries to retain up to 80% of their original capacity after 500 full charge cycles. As such, it is unlikely you will need a new battery if your Mac is a more recent model such as a 2020 or so.
However, as the battery’s health declines, users may notice their MacBook’s performance also drops, with worse performance and more frequent charging needs.
Signs You Need a Battery Replacement
- Battery Health Warning: macOS indicates the battery needs servicing.
- Swelling Battery: The battery is physically swollen, causing the trackpad or keyboard to lift.
Apple themselves do not replace sell batteries for MacBooks. When they replace batteries, they replace the entire palmist which is why they charge such a high price for this service. Our technicians are able to replace the battery only, keeping the cost and waste down. We use third party batteries that we have extensively tested to ensure they match genuine Apple batteries as closely as possible.
- Safety: These batteries meet rigorous safety standards and are designed to work seamlessly with your MacBook.
- Performance: High-quality batteries provide reliable performance, ensuring your MacBook operates at optimal speeds without unexpected shutdowns.
- Longevity: They offer good longevity and help maintain your MacBook’s overall lifespan.
The Approved Repair Company
Established 2010
Great place for uni students to use for laptops. Fixed laptop same day when fan was buzzing/whirring within an hour. Cost is good, and had quick responses to issue and concerns when using their WhatsApp messaging system
Really happy with my repair. Done in the day for just £20 extra. The lady on reception was polite and easy to deal with can't recommend these people enough
I recently had my 2017 iMac fail. I put quote requests out none replied, only bits. I was told the price for repairs up front. They fitted a new power supply which got it working but found another fault on the motherboard which they fixed. I was kept informed and had explanation of my repairs. I would recommend them for a first class price and service. Well done to all.
Friendly atmosphere and knowledgeable professionals working there, I had my laptop fixed within a few days. I highly recommend this place
Really helpful, fixed my nintendo in under 5 mins. Really good customer service. Thank you! 🙂
This company is great. I dropped my MacBook and needed a new screen started of and messaged them on their WhatsApp link and they gave me costs and explained the process. When I arrived there the lady on the reception was really nice had a small chat and we picked it up later that day and Mac screen is like new really impressed with their services. Would highly recommend them to anyone. Thanks again guys
Perfect customer service and quick turnaround around, great price too!!
After shopping around for a reasonably priced MacBook Air screen replacement and receiving several quotes that were far from affordable, I came across BITS through a recommendation on Perplexity.
From the outset, their pricing, repair process, and use of genuine parts were clearly explained and very reassuring. They arranged free collection via Royal Mail, the repair was completed within 24 hours, and the device was delivered back to me the very next working day.
The entire experience was smooth, efficient, and excellent value for money. I am thoroughly impressed with the service and would highly recommend BITS to anyone needing reliable and professional Apple repairs.
I had a really positive experience of BITS. I took in my iMac in with a suspected power supply issue, mid-afternoon. The following morning (just 18 hours later) I was contacted to say that the replacement power supply was fitted and diagnostic checks were complete. I went in to collect and was given space and time to start-up and check the computer.
I'm really pleased with the service as well as the courteous and efficient dealings with Muhammad and Adam. Good price too, I imagine a fraction of the Apple price!
Thank you, BITS!
Good quality repairs, quick service.
Absolutely brilliant service. I've been using them for years and even purchased pc's from them. They're always happy to help and prices are reasonable.
The shop staff were very enthusiastic and friendly. Highly recommended. The best repair shop in Bournemouth, bar none. Thank very much.
Awesome service. Repaired my Mac 2020 M1 screen within 48 hours! Very happy.
Very helpful, took my laptop for the first time and got it fixed super quickly. There seemed to be a problem a little after with the screen, took it in again and they sorted it out very quickly again and with no fuzz under the warranty, even gave me advice on other non-related problems I had. Decent!
Was fast and excellent service would 100% recommend coming here for repairs or upgrades to pc or laptop amazing work
Great job. My daughter had destroyed the screen and chassis of her iPad pro 12.9 and then it stopped working. BITS were up front and transparent about costs, they ordered a new motherboard, replaced the screen and put in a new charging port. All for a fair price. Good comms, nice people. I was worried about getting ripped off when searching for someone to do the repair work. I made a good choice, recommend💯,thanks guys 👍
Thank you. Brilliant job. Repaired my old MacBook after getting covered is cola. Good job at a good price for the work involved
Wonderfull. Good communication, fixed my ps5 fast. Good price. Love it.
Speedy, transparent and quality service is a guarantee when you use BITS
Used this place twice now and really reliable, deffinitley my go to repair shop in Bournemouth. Friendly staff too!
5* service, nice people to deal with, prompt and efficient service. Highly recommended. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
I don’t usually leave reviews, but Bits truly deserves one. They did an excellent job repairing our Mac Pro, which had several major issues, including not turning on at all. The most stressful part was the high risk of losing years’ worth of precious family photos and important work documents, but the team handled everything with great care and professionalism.
The owner and his team are incredibly friendly, patient, and take the time to explain technical matters in a way that’s easy to understand. As someone who isn’t very familiar with technical issues, I really appreciated how respectful and approachable they were, especially towards women customers.
They are trustworthy and transparent, always walking you through each step and discussing options and pricing before moving forward. Communication is clearly a priority for them, and you can tell they genuinely do their best for their customers.
Unsure which Mac you have?
All Macs have their model number on the bottom of the device, as shown opposite – the letter A, followed by 4 numbers (i.e. A2338).
Using this model number, you should be able to find the cost of screen replacement using the our price list or price calculator
Depending on the age of your Mac, the model number may either be closer to the screen hinge, or closer to the trackpad area.
