Motherboard and Batteries (Low) from New MacBook Pro (Image: iFixIt) 
First Model Disbadembly 13 inches 2018 shows that Apple has made some changes to the internal workings.
The iFixIt repair service provider dissected Apple's latest 13-inch MacBook Pro, released last week in detail. The disbadembly shows some of the conversion measures that Apple has taken in the Coffee Lake devices.
How Apple integrates a larger and heavier battery. This now comes with 58 watt hours (instead of 49.2), is 232.7 instead of 196.7 grams and consists of six instead of five individual cells. The extra weight, however, Apple saved elsewhere in the top box; In addition, the battery life should be neither shorter nor longer.
T2 chip, silicone keyboard and more
The speaker has changed, it is now longer and a little narrower, promises a slightly bbadigeren sound. For the first time in the MacBook Pro, Apple is well known for the iMac Pro T2 chip. The ARM processor is responsible for security applications, such as protecting the Touch ID fingerprint sensor, as well as image processing and SSD control tasks. The latter comes in the disbadembled model of Toshiba 256 GB and is unfortunately still soldered to the motherboard. RAM chips can not be deleted or updated.
Apple is once again putting an end to quick fixes.

The new MacBook Pro's keyboard has an extra silicone membrane under the keys, making the attack quieter and hopefully the crumpled keyboard. iFixIt has also unmounted Apple's slightly redesigned power adapter for the new MacBook Pro. It has a new model number (A1947) and has been redesigned internally – it should be better shielded and have more foam rubber to protect it from impact. In addition, the USB-C port is now plastic instead of aluminum.
The new MacBook Pro barely wait
Overall, the new MacBook Pro with 13-inch screen is once again difficult to repair. iFixIt gave the device a "repair score" of only one in ten points. The only good thing is that you can remove the trackpad without removing the battery. The processor, RAM, and flash memory are soldered to the board, and the top case is fully glued – including the keyboard, the battery, and the speakers.
The Touch ID sensor also serves as a power button and is connected to the T2 chip. If a device can not be turned on, Apple will probably need to install a new motherboard.
