Review on πŸ’¨ Padarsey MacBook Pro 13-Inch Unibody Cooling Fan Compatible with A1278 A1280 A1342 by German Diaz

Revainrating 2 out of 5

[EDIT] Not so quiet.

EDIT: So, like my previous review said, I thought the noise from one of the fans was user error. BUT after using my MacBook, as I usually do a few days after installing a fan, there is a faint but definitely audible rattling noise coming from the new fan. When my room is quiet and I'm not typing or clicking the mouse, that noise is there, right next to the new fan. It's not too annoying, but it's definitely NOT OEM quality. I am changing my rating. Fits perfectly on my 15" Retina MacBook Pro Mid 2015. Not sure if I ruined one or took the fans out of the box but one of them, the right one, rumbled. I removed it, reinstalled it and made sure I didn't tighten the screws twice but it still rattled. The other fan is silent. I put my old non-rattling fan back on the right side which was fine.
