Buy this battery, you can't do better

Unit looks like OEM equipment. Install was straight forward, nothing tricky, worked out of the box. Very Very pleased. Great quality at a reasonable price.

Pros
  • Compatible with both old and new computer models
Cons
  • May not be as reliable as the original charging port

Would definitely recommend

I was send two of the same screwdrivers but luckily I have my own set. But, I love the battery. It really holds a strong charge. It also doesn’t get as warm as my last one. A solid purchase!

Pros
  • Pretty bad, it fried my logicboard. Wouldn’t recommend it.
Cons
  • Battery life may not last as long as advertised

Don’t waste your money this battery wasted my mac

This battery fried my Mac. I am a skilled electrical tech and this battery was installed correctly. Anti static wristband was used. The only thing ninja about this battery is its ability to roundhouse your logic board.

Pros
  • Great price and easy to install. Perfect fit. No issues so far.
Cons
  • Non-refundable if not compatible

Immediate issues on my review.

Computer became incredibly unstable, restarting and shutting off randomly. SMC reset did nothing. Replacing with another brand fixed issues immediately.

Pros
  • A reliable investment in reliable and consistent laptop performance
Cons
  • May not provide as strong and stable a connection as the original battery

Great buy, easy install.

Had my 14 year old son installed it on a 2012 MacBook Pro. Works great. It lasts days before we need to plug it in. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • Increases the resale value of your MacBook Pro
Cons
  • May not be as easy to remove as the original battery

Broken battery in my review

I ordered a battery a few months ago and as of last week my macbook has "Service battery" notice on and battery charge does not hold at all. I have emailed the company 3 times with no response. I have tried to reach them by there phone number listed on there website. You cant! its out of service.

Pros
  • COMPATIBLE WITH: MacBook Pro 15" A1382 | A1286 | MC721LL/A | MC723LL/A | MD035LL/A | MD318LL/A | MD322LL/A | BTO/CTO | MD103LL/A | MD104LL/A | 661-5844 | 020-7134-A |EMC Number:2353-1, 2563,2556 Early/Late 2011 Mid 2012
Cons
  • May cause the laptop to run slower

Awful product on my review.

Update on my first reciew for this battery. Battery does not charge before 6-7 hrs nor has a life to stay for even 2 hrs. Did not come with battery screws. But screwdriver were included. Total crap product. Also, battery depletes way to quick than usual in between if using heavy application like from 63% jumped to 12% for just opening xcode installer on mac.

Pros
  • Perfect for users who rely heavily on their laptops for daily work and activities
Cons
  • May not be as aesthetically pleasing as the original battery

Extend the life of your MacBook Pro

The Ninja battery replacement for my 2011 MacBook Pro was easy to install and set up. The battery capacity/life appears to be very good but I’ll give it short amount of a test of time to rate it 5 stars instead of 4 stars.

Pros
  • Great product, fits perfectly and very easy to install with tools included
Cons
  • Only compatible with specific MacBook Pro models

I got the power!: my feedback

Fits perfectly and works like a charm.When I purchased my MacBook Pro it came with no battery and Now I have a battery that allows me to be mobile with it, but it also has a great battery life to boot. I think I have found my new battery supplier in Ninja Battery's.

Pros
  • Possible increase in system speed due to less battery load
Cons
  • May cause the laptop to overheat when running certain software programs

Both batteries have a weird habit of charging normally and then when they hit 50% they drop to 7% in an instant. The second battery caused my mac to report saying "Service Recommended" saying how the battery's capacity has been significantly reduced.

Pros
  • Happily installed to renew old Macbook Pro. Works Great!
Cons
  • May not be as lightweight as the original battery

Reliable choice for MacBook Pro

These batteries use higher quality cells and perform like the original OEM batteries. The key to choosing seems to be buying a battery that the vendor puts their name on. 9 times out of 10 when I have purchased one with no brand name, they are junk that fail rapidly and are cheap knock-offs.We have installed over 30 of these with no issues in older MacBook Pro laptops under refurbishment.

Pros
  • Quick and easy installation
Cons
  • May not come with a warranty

Does not hold a charge

It doesn't work unless it is plugged in. As soon as I unplug it in the battery goes from 99% to 5% in less than thirty minutes.

Pros
  • Laptop Accessories
Cons
  • May not work with certain software

Easy replacement best in my review

Easy to install on my Macbook Pro 15" Early 2011. No issues with connector or overall size. It took a full charge and the battery monitor recognized it. Only had it for about a month so I have no idea how long it will stay good.

Pros
  • Boosts computer performance by reducing the load on the CPU
Cons
  • May not be able to keep up with heavy laptop usage

Rapid Drain & Imprecise Percentage Calculations

I had high hopes for this replacement battery but it is not at all the replacement I was hoping for. Only running a single browser, the battery drops from 100% to 75% then down to 8% and below in less than an hour. I can never trust the percentage left because it drops so inconsistently. It got my computer functioning again from my original battery that completely died on me, but I wouldn't trust using it for more than 30 minutes without a power cord handy. Probably worth spending a bit more on

Pros
  • Batteries
Cons
  • May not work with certain operating systems

Overall good value: my feedback

Super easy to Instal, battery looks and feels high quality. Battery life seems to be about 4-5 hours on continuous use. Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • Highly compatible with MacBook Pro's built-in software
Cons
  • May not hold as much charge as the original battery

Short battery health

Less than 20 cycles and the battery health is already at 63%, not sure if bad unit or very poor quality. Extremely disappointed.

Pros
  • Arrive on time and fit product
Cons
  • Battery performance may deteriorate over time
