Rechargeable Battery - 15-inch MacBook Pro (aluminum)

• VERY Disappointing Battery Life

  2.0 out of 5 stars

  I thought I was getting a long life battery - don't they advertise 6-8 hrs? This one fully charged shows only 3:05 and in a real world test (six or seven programs open, no cd player use, playing iTunes and speakers only) I got only 2 hrs 30 min on the charge. … More (Read full review)

  I've had my Macbook Pro for a little more than a year and having to replace my battery already. I have done the drain thing every month like clock work. Now I'm having to payout $130 bucks for a new one. Overpriced and not worth it if I didn't HAVE to have it. … More (Read full review)

• Pricey, less powerful, but well made.

  4.0 out of 5 stars

  Let's be honest - $130 is a lot to pay for this battery, especially given Apple's tainted reputation with their notebook batteries . Still - the unibody MBP uses a 50 watt battery, whereas the previous gen had a 60 watt - and lab tests show the battery life in this model has declined. A single battery is not an option for power users.
  
  This battery comes with an attatchable plastic cover. It's likely because the battery has two centimeter-wide jutting elements that could be easily broken off in a gear bag. I like this, though - because it will also stop dust from touching the metal contacts on the battery.
  
  You pay to play when you go with an Apple notebook. It's expensive, and I don't expect to get more than two years of use from it - but it's still a solid piece of gear.
