MacBook Pro 15″ A1707 Repair

Illustration of a MacBook Pro 15″ being repaired

We repair the MacBook Pro 15″ with model number A1707, sold in 2016 and 2017 with the Intel Core i7 chip and a 15.4″ Retina display. You’ll find the model number in small print on the underside.

About the A1707

  • Years: 2016 and 2017
  • Chip: Intel Core i7
  • Display: 15.4″ Retina
  • Touch Bar and Touch ID
  • Four Thunderbolt 3 ports
  • Butterfly keyboard

Like the 13-inch models of the same years, the A1707 is prone to “flexgate” display cable wear.

Repairs we do on the A1707

  • “Flexgate” display backlight failures
  • Butterfly keyboard faults
  • Graphics faults on models with Radeon GPUs
  • Battery swelling

We diagnose the fault and agree the price with you before any work starts. Repairs come with a 3-month warranty.

Not sure which model you have?

On a Mac that still starts, choose Apple menu > About This Mac. Otherwise, read the “Model A” number printed on the bottom case, or bring it in and we’ll check.

Bring it in or call us

Walk in to The Willows, Unit 1, 80 Willow Walk, London SE1 5SY, Mon to Sat, 9am to 6pm. We look at the fault and give you a price before any work starts.
