Apple fans that have the older, and more popular 15-Inch MacBook Pro Model with Retina Display need to check their serial numbers on the Apple Support Website to see if their model is affected. The support website can be found here. While Apple sold the popular third generation 15” MacBook Pro from 2012-2018, the specific models affected were built and developed between September 2015 and February 2017. Aside from using the serial number found in the apple logo under the “About This Mac” tab, the laptop itself is usually labeled “Macbook Pro *Retina, 15-Inch, Mid 2015).

Apple has announced that this recall is not affecting the other MacBook Pro Retina Display models, such as the 13” MacBook Pro from the same years. When asked about   Read more…
