- The new MacBook Pro 16 is currently in our review and there we tried to open the backplate to see the internals. However, its not as easy as removing 6 screws.

Damn the background music is like thousands of frogs are having a party above my head ☺
Thanks this helped me to clean up my fans :) It was quite difficult to pup that panel, I was worried that I will break something but then I figure out it to open. Closing was also an adventure :) aligning it back was not easy too, but now I have faaar better temps and fans noise than before.
What if my MacBook Pro has only 4 screws on the back cover instead of 10? When I try to pull the back cover off a MacBook Air with 10 screws, it lets me easily pull the back cover off safely. But for my MacBook Pro with only 4 screws on the back cover, I am unable to pull it off.
The music is very irritating though 😂
I think you damaged the back cover
That is what your mother said

"You can only clean the fans" have fun
This is why I use Windows
Jokes on you, that's exactly what i wanna do, lol
I would have have thrown it against a wall.... ridiculous what size screwdrivers? The screws strip immediately what a crappy product and video

@@WorldwideAP98 they’re bots lol
thank you for the look-see; I've been mighty curious
Turn that bloody music off
thank you for the laugh 😆
Thank you so much. I am NOT a computer person and watched your video to take the back off and then on a million times because I couldn’t line it up. Also, I think the music is cool and made me feel like a badass while trying to open it. Like I was an investigator. THANKS!!!! :)
lmao, as an IT person, this comment made me smile.
@Exidose Child of 2 IT professionals here. Watched this bc Mom kept putting off fixing my Mac for various valid reasons, so ended up learning how to hardware today.
Thanks! Just cleaned out all the dust overheating my MacBook in less than 20 minutes!
Thank you so much🥰🥰🥰🥰!!! my plate is destroyed, I have a question though...
You think a 2020 13 inch model would fit into my 13 inch 2019?? Theres one for sale but the issue is, it says dimensions of the thickness between the 2 is different
Thanks a lot, this helped me a lot. Everyone beware of the shitty screws, especially the longer ones in the back. I had to drill one open in the end. But notebook fans are basically mute again after cleaning, totally worth it.
dont use plastic clips, buy a big suction cup and suction it upwards on the bottom side of the case
why would something with that many screws need slide in covers..hmmm... shouldnt they just weld the bottom lid shut so kiltedtim can rest easy.
Hahahah, this was perfect. I wanted to recover data from the SSD with an external reader and am glad I saw this video to understand it's a useless endeavor. Thanks.
Paul Nelson why did it die?
@@donald1792 spilled drink on it. Otherwise it had zero problems.
so no chance of recovering the files?
@@nti1656 no. The laptop wouldn't even power up and since the storage is integrated on the board I had no adapters to connect to. There may be another way of doing this but I'm only familiar with removable media.
@@nelsonpaul72 god damn it
Thanks for sharing your experience with us.
Hello friends please could someone tell me any online store where I can get an original screen 2016 model A1707? I've seen that EBAY sells them, but I don't think they're original and I don't know if my macbook could have any incompatibility with those screens
Thank you so much for this video! It saved me a bunch of money and it works! I am so grateful 💫🙌
You saved me a nasty belt bottom cover. Thanks for the video
What size screwdriver do you use? I can't find anywhere what tools I need to open mine...?
Precision Pentalobe Screwdriver (5 pointed star)
Hello - I’ve an issue of damaged screen and I need to reset my password using Apple ID through recovery window on MacBook Pro 2016 16 inch. The recovery view of utility window shows up on the damaged laptop screen and not on extended monitor. If I remove the display connection only , without removing battery and Wi-Fi, will that transfer entire display on extended monitor, enabling me to see recovery screen and reset password
But what if I want to change the case, with which my Macbook white 2010 is compatible?
Omg!!! Thank you. I took the screws out two days ago and I had no idea how to put it back on
you didnt try putting them back exactly where they came out?
You have helped 'solving' my curiosity about how the internal of the new 16 MBP looks like😊. Thanks, bruh...
One screw is difficult to remove
I try lub (wd-40) but nothing yet.
Any tips please ?
Thanks for support
They can be upgraded by removing and soldiering chips and CPUs (hard) or find a new logic board with the features you seek and remove and replace. :)
Model A2251, like this one everything . Can you recovered the dead macbook SSD files from this model? I've opened mine just need to buy correct cable I guess to connect it with another computer
It took some muscle to get mine apart and getting it back together took some work as well.
hi which number of screwdriver are u using to open the mcbook air because mine was spill with coffee and i want to open that to get the hd sata hardsisk inside

Thanks this was exactly what I was looking for how to take the cover on and off.
How much will it cost to replace a damaged body of a 2020 MacBook Pro 16 inch?
Where is the SSD drive? I would like to add more space to my 2019 MacBook Pro
Thank you, I also bent the back panel slightly and grazed my nuckles trying to yank it out.
Is 2020 model have same problem you cannot upgrade the ssd?
I can’t get my backplate back on... I don’t know what to do. I push on a slight angle, but it will not slide back on all the way.
The cover has to be pushed down on each side at the rear to slide into the clips. Push down the rear corners while sliding the cover into the clips. But you probably already know that by now.
good video, ‘you can only clean the fans’ is about what I expected. Had no idea the back plate is now slide in at the top and it clips. Goddamn apple always coming up w ways to fuck w user repairability
Hi, please whats the model of the screwdriver you did use to remove the screws in the back? (1st steep)
pentalobe screwdriver
@@BishalKhan01 What size genius? There are many different sizes of pentalobe.
@@cv-cq9ry P5 pentalobe screwdriver
Dang! THANK YOU for this video! I opened my MBP, but was trying to force the cover off instead of pull forward! You saved me!
I am having problems unclipping/sliding the back. The front was no problem. Did anybody of you solve it?
Try to pull the first corner and then the othercorner. It does not really work to pull the back cover with one single pull.
can we replace the speakers?????? please tell me and where can i buy one,
Can you do teardown video for new macbook pro 2020
I can’t remove the back plate still I push the back part my hardest but it didn’t work. Please help
Same. such a shit tutorial
Pls where can I buy screen replacement part for MacBook pro
Thanks didn't get it always open but enuff to check if water is in my computer
Enough* learn English.
Heyho, nice, thanks bro. although you damaged the lower cover plate...! I careful opened mine and would lshare my experince with all the other who are aiming to clean their MacBook.
After lifting the plate as shown in the video I used wooden chopsticks to further open the plate. The reason for this is, there are two clips in the middle of the outer edge of the plate that tightens the plate with two tiny metal clips (left & right) to a pin on the frame. So, after lifting the front end I carefully slided the chopsticks let's say somehow diagonal from center to the outer side so that the bottom plate clicks off the clip on each side. Finally you easily can push the bottom plate off. Therefore I also used my shopstics since it needed some leverage.
When remount the plate be careful. do not press the clips before sliding in place the back of the plate. Cheers
Hi! I tried doing what you described but I as soon as I started poking something in the back corner it started smoking!????? I immediately stopped poking it and the smoke stopped.
@@alexkyte8013 you should never so this with the power on
Hey question, can you replace the speakers of this model or are they soldered in? Thanks
its been a while since we did that video, so we can not really tell ...
what is the specification of the screwdriver thanks
Hopefully you can just buy a replacement bottom cover. Thanks for the heads up.
I just change my 2011 17” for this one and i can assurance that they are though laps.
What screwdrivers were needed to open the casing
I believe it's the ap5 screws. they're star shaped.
Despite the not-as-good graphics, I'm sticking to my ThinkPad X1 Extreme. I just have to loosen the Phillips head screws and pop it open. Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
i see you're a man of culture too
@@_vindicator_ your'e both retarded there is more than a few reasons to buy a mbp over a thinkpad. The current gen sucks, the motherboards need to be replaced every 3 months by lenovo service tech. T480 works better and I cant recommend 10 year old hardware in 2023.
Yeah yeah yeah....yeah
Is there a way to fix the charging ports?
Can you replace the battery?
What about thermal paste ? Can I replace it?
It would be useful to know what size/type of screwdriver is needed for this operation ^^
pentalobe screwdriver
@@BishalKhan01 There are many different sizes of pentalobe. Which size is needed please???
@@cv-cq9ry 1.2 star
Thank you. Very helpful disassembly video
You are welcome!
So the parts, RAM etc are soldered in, and can't be removed? Well that sucks.😧
Nice vid though. I was really curious to see, what inside of that thing looks like.👍
I suggest using a suction cup to lift the back cover. Much easier and less risk of bending it.
Great idea!
where can I find the proper tools?
Amazing accurate and simple video. I recommend cutting the part at the beginning when you damage the cover. To help others to not damage the cover too. ( I did it damaged the cover too ). Greetings!
You can also reapply the thermal paste
Hi, I've a MacBook Pro of 2018.Is it possible , beyond to clean fans, reapply the thermal paste on the CPU? do u ,or the author of the post, know??
Thanks this helped me to clean up my fans :)
Jeez... maybe you should have read up before attempting this! I'm pretty sure MacBook's have used a similar mechanism for attaching the bottom cover for a long time, so the "sliding" part isn't specific to the 16" MBP. For anyone else out there DO NOT follow these instructions, Apple don't sell bottom covers on their own and used ones will not be around for a few years at least.
Thanks for the tip to push cover forward
How can I get this special screwdriwer?
Never thought I'd ask for the track ID on a MacBook tear down video. Seriously though, what's the name of the song used?
Electro Guzzi - Jangu
anybody had a problem mac shutting down while on sleep after you open a cover?
Why don’t you use suction cup?
How much would those parts be ?
What specific screwdriver did you use?
No info about toolkit?
Very helpful and much appreciated
What screw drivers did you use?
What’s size trox are you using
wut things kind of tools are u using
ok so what type of tool r u using??? not helpful
wow thanks for posting. almost no point in removing the bottom cover if the only thing that can be done is to clean the fans.
... and fuk up the back and scratch the top!!! noob job :P
Thank you very much. This is very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Why don't any of these videos state the SIZE of pentalope screwdriver that is needed?
Pentalobe 1.2mm star / P5
Unable to upgrade ram nor ssd? The only reason I use crappie mac is because of my job, 5 years of using mac and still think they suck
not only fans to fix, replace faulty components and used battery.
Putting the back plate back in is so hard😭😭😭
Did you figure out how? I can’t do it and I tried for over 4 hours! Can’t even turn on my computer now
@@BR-lo1pi Yea I figured it out. I slid it around until it fits because the locking mechanism looked like they slide together. That's all I remember. If your mac doesn't turn back on anymore then you might have to fix that first before putting the plate back on. If you still can't do it then it looks like a visit to the apple store.
why would you solder the SSD RAM GPU??
Because apple loves scamming people
Apple solders those parts so Mac is a *disposable* *computer* . You want more ram or faster larger ssd? Buy another Mac, says Apple Corp!
THIS VIDEO IS THE BEST!!!!
Just bought a mcbook pro 13 2019 and realised it has hdd and not ssd. Is it possible to change it to ssd?
Not using rubber mat? Way to go! Say hello to scratches and dents.
Scratches and dents greatly harms the resale value. But that makes Apple Corp happy!
I completely destroyed the two side vent slots... The back cover won't even close properly; it stays lifted... I really fucked up my MacBook...
Why cover isn't glued, lol
i like how he made a tutorial on how to remove backplate, but dosent know himself how to do it, and bended up his backplate...
I wonder why apple even bothers with screws. At this point they might as well solder the backpanel
Thanks bro. The battery on mine had an issue and I got to the little strip on it easy enough. Hey, Mom, if you find this comment, don't panic, the Mac is fine. I didn't dent anything or scratch up a board.
M1 ?
I'm going to remove the clips on the bottom, and add some thermal pads
Since SSD it’s soldered, makes this laptop a Disposable Device, and that’s a Apple mistake since laptops Storage Valuable User Data, and very often Irreplaceable!
I just upgraded to this one and kinda already miss the interchangeable pieces on my 17” 2011 MacBook Pro. Well I guess have to storage my data on a external HDD. :/
And lose the main Concept of a Laptops....portability.
Old comment, but FWIW you should never have irreplaceable datas on any device, ever -- it should be backed up somewhere else on a regular basis.
What about the battery? You didn't remove it....
MacBook tear down on a banger.
What? No upgrade???
Imagine modifying devices so that the electrics and stuff are outside.
Sounds dangerous and will probably damage delicate stuff
Sounds cool! Have the aluminum plate/ heat sink inside and a clear cover over all the cool exposed electronics!
at lest mention where is ssd and ram
Slided in? Omm past tense of slide is “slid” heh
Sorry for not being English natives ... ;)
i dont know how people from where people this much courage ......
