It seems that the new MacBook Pro laptop is not as good as it may sounds. Until now, several problems have been found, including overheating, built-in webcam problem, cpu whine, inadequate thermal grease application, and poor airport reception. Now, adding to the list, couple battery issues have also emerged, especially for battery with a serial number up to W8608. This poor battery will stop providing power to the MacBook Pro laptop and it won’t respond to the charging status button. To avoid further problem, Apple has silently started battery recall programme. Means, users may replace their laptop’s batteries with the new one, that hopefully, will fix the problem (and stop Apple from disgrace).

So, how do you know whether you should call Apple to have your MacBook Pro laptop’s battery replaced or not? Here are some of the symptoms:

• The battery going from a full charge to 90% to zero
• Battery going to one blinking led
• Non response
• Significant capacity to battery capacity
