How to Identify your MacBook Pro model

Your Mac provides several tools to help you identify it. The simplest is About This Mac, available by choosing About This Mac from the Apple menu  in the upper-left corner of your screen. The other is the System Information app. Learn how to use these tools to identify your Mac. Identify your MacBook Pro model

Everyone loves Macs for their aesthetically pleasing, beautiful, minimalistic designs. Whether you have an iMac or a MacBook, you can be sure that its iconic shape will stay relevant for a long time — a true rarity in the world of tech. 

However, if we stop to think about it, most iMacs, MacBooks and other Apple devices are considered timeless precisely because their design changes so little year over year, which also makes it hard to tell them apart. 

So you might be wondering how to find Mac model number? Or you might be asking yourself “How old is my Mac really?” or even “What MacBook do I have right now?” Let’s dive into these questions one by one. 

If you don’t have your Mac or it doesn’t start up, use one of these solutions instead:

• Find the serial number printed on the underside of your Mac, near the regulatory markings. It’s also on the original packaging, next to a barcode label. You can then enter that serial number on the Check Coverage page to find your model.
• The original packaging might also show an Apple part number, such as MLH12xx/A (“xx” is a variable that differs by country or region). You can match the Apple part number to one in the list below to find your model.
