Keyboard / Top Case Options (Silver & Space Gray)

For the MacBook Pro 13" (A2159 · 2019 · Intel), the keyboard is not replaced as a loose key set. Apple’s design combines the keyboard, palm rest, speaker grilles and battery cells into a single top case assembly. Below you can choose between panels that already include a new Premium Platinium battery or panels where we carefully move your existing battery over to the new keyboard assembly.

Why We Strongly Recommend the Keyboard Panel with a New Premium Platinium Battery

Protecting both your keyboard and battery long term

In this MacBook Pro 13" (A2159 · 2019 · Intel) design, the battery cells are mounted inside the top case using very strong double-sided adhesive tapes. To reuse your existing battery, each cell must be carefully pried from the old panel, all adhesive must be broken, and then the same battery has to be fixed into the new keyboard assembly with fresh tape.

Even if this is done by a professional, the battery cells are almost always flexed or slightly bent during removal. Modern lithium-ion batteries are built from extremely thin internal layers containing graphite and other carbon-based active materials. Any bending or twisting – even if you cannot see it from the outside – can damage these internal layers, increase internal resistance and permanently reduce the battery’s performance.

If a battery is stressed or creased in this way, the internal carbon structure gradually loses its factory properties. In real-world use this means shorter runtime, faster wear, and in some cases a battery that becomes unstable or completely fails much earlier than expected.

For this reason, the most professional and safe approach when replacing the full top case keyboard panel is to install a new Premium Platinium battery that is factory-bonded to the new assembly. This minimizes mechanical stress on the cells, preserves the designed performance, and offers the most reliable long-term result for your MacBook Pro 13" (A2159 · 2019 · Intel), whether it is Silver or Space Gray.
