The wording above, along with OWC’s previous teardowns and the history and trajectory of the MacBook Pro, all indicate that the SSD will be soldered in. We don’t need to belabor the point by running the same routine with the SSDs of other Macs as we did with the memory. Scroll down until you see the memory options on the right-hand side and click on the link that says, “How much memory is right for you?” Let’s start by heading over to the MacBook Pro page at to customize our new 16-inch MacBook Pro. How do we know? Well – just for fun– we can use some simple 3rd-grade level detective work, our extensive experience in tearing apart Macs, and a cursory knowledge of how to speak “Apple,” the screenshots tell it all. In fact, we are reasonably sure that the memory and SSD are soldered in place, even though we probably won’t have our hands on one until later today to verify. The new 16-inch MacBook Pro is not user-upgradable. But since we have seen Apple once again implement user-accessible options in the new 2019 Mac Pro, might we get lucky with the new 16-inch MacBook Pro and return to the glory days of DIY?
In fact, parts have been soldered directly to the board in MacBook Pros since 2012.
This has been especially true with its lineup of MacBooks – they have been working to make them thinner, lighter, and more compact for years. Apple has been steadily moving away from products that users can upgrade themselves.
