How to Find Your MacBook Model Number & Colour (For Accurate MacBook Repairs in Birmingham)

If you’re looking for MacBook repairs in Birmingham, the first thing I need to give you an accurate quote is your exact device details.

To correctly identify your MacBook and avoid delays, please send me:

  • The Model Number (starts with “A”)
  • The Colour of your MacBook

This only takes about 60 seconds and helps me provide a fast and accurate MacBook repair service in Birmingham and across the UK.


Step 1: Find Your MacBook Model Number (Most Important)

The model number is the most important detail when booking a repair.

How to find it:

  1. Close your MacBook
  2. Turn it upside down
  3. Look for the small text near the hinge

You’ll see something like Model AXXXX

 Send me this number so I can identify your exact MacBook.

Common Examples:

  • A1466 – MacBook Air 13”
  • A1502 – MacBook Pro Retina 13”
  • A1708 – MacBook Pro 13”
  • A2338 – MacBook Pro M1

Many MacBooks look the same but use completely different parts—this number ensures I use the correct components for your repair.

Tip: The text is very small. Use your phone camera or a torch to zoom in if needed.

Step 2: Tell Me Your MacBook Colour

Your MacBook’s colour helps me match parts like:

  • Screens
  • Keyboards
  • Full housings

Common MacBook colours:

  • Silver → Light metallic finish
  • Space Grey → Dark grey 
  • Gold → Light champagne gold

Where to check:

  • The top lid (Apple logo side)
  • Around the keyboard area

For best results, check in natural daylight to avoid colour distortion.


Can’t Find the Model Number?

If the text underneath has worn off, don’t worry—I can still help identify it.

Option 1 (Best):

Send me:

  •  A clear photo of the bottom of the MacBook
  •  A photo of the open MacBook (keyboard + screen)

Option 2:

On your Mac:

  1. Click the Apple logo
