Here are the prices, with and without AppleCare
Without AppleCare
- Battery service: $149 (flat fee)
- Other damages: requires an inspection to determine the final service fee.
- Estimated fees are for out‑of‑warranty service from Apple and may be subject to tax.
- A shipping fee may be added if the device needs to be shipped.
- Apple Authorized Service Providers can set their own service fees and will provide their own estimate.
For reference, battery service for the MacBook Air currently costs up to $199, depending on the model, while it can cost up to $249 for the MacBook Pro.
With AppleCare
- Battery service: $0
- Screen damage: $49
- External enclosure damage: $49
- Other accidental damage: $149
Apple reminds users that fees may be subject to tax, and adds that “for service covered by an AppleCare plan, your service fee is the same at Apple and all Apple Authorized Service Providers.”
AppleCare+ for MacBook Neo
- Plan cost: $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year (the cheapest AppleCare+ plan after the Mac mini).
AppleCare One
Subscribers to AppleCare One can add the new MacBook Neo to their list of covered devices at no additional cost if they have fewer than three devices in the plan, or for an extra $5.99 per month otherwise. In that case, the MacBook Neo will be covered under the same AppleCare+ benefits included with the AppleCare One plan.
