Hi, I’ve recently purchased the new MacBook Pro 13” Function Key model. I would like to increase the SSD size. Is the SSD soldered in the new MacBook Pro 13”? Please do let me know, any suggestion on whats needed.
Well, I can offer you a glimmer of hope! Unlike the Touch Bar models The 2016/17 Function Key models do have serviceable SSD’s! At this point its assumed Apple is still using the same design in the 2018 models.
