The Quick Answer
The Apple Silicon MacBook Pro came in three chips: the M1 in the 13-inch (A2338), and the M1 Pro and M1 Max in the 14-inch (A2442) and 16-inch (A2485). MacTech Pro repairs all of them at component level in Dubai, from battery and mini-LED display to MagSafe 3 charging and logic-board micro-soldering. Repairing the board rather than replacing it keeps your data, since storage is soldered to that specific chip. Free diagnosis, genuine-grade parts, 3-month warranty, free pickup and delivery across Dubai.
M1, M1 Pro or M1 Max?
Your repair depends on which chip your MacBook Pro has. Here's how the three compare, and where to go next for each one.
Apple M1
13″ · A2338 · 2020The base Apple Silicon chip: 8-core CPU and up to 8-core GPU, 8GB or 16GB unified memory. In the 13-inch Pro it runs with a fan, so it holds performance longer than the fanless Air. Charges over USB-C and still has the Touch Bar.
M1 (13″) repair
Apple M1 Pro
14″ & 16″ · A2442 / A2485A bigger chip with up to a 10-core CPU and 16-core GPU and up to 32GB memory. It launched the redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch Pro with a mini-LED ProMotion display, MagSafe 3, HDMI and an SD slot.
M1 Pro repair
Apple M1 Max
14″ & 16″ · A2442 / A2485The top chip of the generation: up to a 32-core GPU, up to 64GB memory and double the memory bandwidth of the M1 Pro. Same body as the M1 Pro, built for heavy video, 3D and photography work.

How MacTech Pro handles it
Free diagnosis
We test the machine and find the real fault, then give you a fixed price. No fix, no fee.
Board-level work
Power-rail and thermal diagnosis under a microscope, so we repair the exact component that failed.
Genuine-grade parts
Battery, display or port fitted with quality parts and tested properly before it leaves the bench.
Data protected
Your storage and data are kept intact wherever possible, and we hand back a machine we've fully tested.
Why bring it to MacTech Pro
- We repair the board at component level, not just swap it. On the M1, M1 Pro and M1 Max, a single failed component is usually the whole fault. Repairing that part is cheaper than a board swap and keeps your storage and data intact.
- Free, honest diagnosis and a fixed price first. You see the real fault and the real cost before any work. No fix, no fee.
- Genuine or OEM-grade parts, fitted and tested. That matters more on these models, where the mini-LED display and large batteries are expensive to get wrong.
- Work done by Dan's bench. Power-rail diagnosis and micro-soldering on Apple Silicon by one of Dubai's more experienced technicians, with 380+ reviews behind the shop.
- Your data comes first. These are pro machines, and we treat the data on them as the priority on every board and liquid job.
- Free pickup and delivery across Dubai, secure courier to the rest of the UAE, and a 3-month warranty on the repair.
Who does the work
Dan
Dan runs the bench at MacTech Pro and handles the board-level work himself: power-rail diagnosis, micro-soldering and data recovery on Apple Silicon Macs, including the M1, M1 Pro and M1 Max MacBook Pro. If another shop has told you the board is dead or the repair isn't possible, he's usually the one who proves otherwise. Every repair described here is carried out or checked by his team.

MacBook Pro M1 — frequently asked questions
The M1 is in the 13-inch MacBook Pro (2020, A2338). The M1 Pro and M1 Max are in the 14-inch (2021, A2442) and 16-inch (2021, A2485). The 14-inch and 16-inch could be ordered with either the M1 Pro or the M1 Max.
We repair at component level. On these models a fault is usually one failed component on the board, and repairing that is cheaper than a board swap and keeps your data, since the storage is tied to the board. We only replace a board when it's genuinely beyond repair.
Often, yes. A board written off by another shop is usually one component they couldn't locate without component-level diagnosis. We measure the board's power rails and current draw to find the real fault, free, before quoting.
The 14-inch and 16-inch use a mini-LED display, which costs more than a standard panel. That's exactly why we diagnose first: sometimes the fault is the display cable or the backlight circuit on the board, which is a much cheaper fix than a full screen.
A component-level board repair is designed to keep your storage, and your data, intact. We treat data as the priority on these machines. The honest exception is severe physical damage to the M1 chip itself, which is rare; we tell you the real odds upfront.
Diagnosis is free and you get a fixed price before any work. Cost depends entirely on the fault. Many repairs are turned around in a few days; pickup and delivery across Dubai is free.
