Apple MacBook Pro 13 A1989 top case assembly with keyboard, battery and trackpad
The Apple MacBook Pro 13 A1989 top case is a complete integrated assembly — space grey aluminium palmrest, full backlit keyboard, factory-cell battery, and Force-Touch trackpad — for MacBook Pro 13 A1989 laptops manufactured around 2018. Apple welds the battery, keyboard and trackpad to the palmrest at the factory, so the entire top case is the only safe replacement path. In stock at N.N Laptops, Hafeez Center, Lahore.
What's included in this top case

- Full backlit keyboard — every key tested.

Why replace the top case as one unit
Apple's modern MacBook design integrates the keyboard, battery, trackpad and palmrest into a single bonded assembly. Independent repair of just the keyboard or just the battery is not practical — the glue used to bond components requires factory heating equipment to remove without damage. Replacing the entire top case is the same procedure Apple's own technicians follow, and it's the only repair we'll perform on these models.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need the full top case instead of just a keyboard?
Apple bonds the keyboard, battery and trackpad directly to the palmrest at the factory using glue and rivets. Removing just the keyboard typically destroys the palmrest, which is why every authorised Apple service replaces the entire top case as one unit. This is the OEM-correct repair.
What's the battery condition?
Each top case is pulled from a tested donor MacBook. We measure battery cycle count via System Information before listing — typical units are at or below 250 cycles. Exact cycle count for the in-stock unit is available on WhatsApp 0314 4000131.
Is the keyboard backlight working?
Yes — every top case is tested on a working logic board before listing. Backlight, all keys, and trackpad gestures (force-touch, three-finger swipe, pinch zoom) are all verified. If any function fails on arrival, return it within 15 days for replacement.
Can you install it for me?
Yes — top case replacement is a 1.5-2 hour shop job. Bring the MacBook to Shop 66A, 3rd Floor, Hafeez Center, Gulberg III, Lahore and we'll handle full disassembly, logic board transfer, and calibration. Labour discounted when you buy the part from us.
Do you offer warranty on used MacBook parts?
Yes — every Apple top case ships with our 15-day check warranty. Test it within 15 days. If the keyboard, trackpad, or battery doesn't perform as described, return for full refund or swap.
