Its main asset: it's the latest MacBook Pro with USB-A ports, SD card reader, MagSafe and easily upgradable components. Its limitations: it is locked into macOS Monterey (no more security updates), recent applications are starting to abandon it and its performance is still far from that of an Apple Silicon Mac. For a limited budget, an upgrade will extend its lifespan by 2-3 years.

For many users and professionals, it's the last \u00abreal\u00bb MacBook Pro - the one that offered a reliable scissor keyboard, full connectivity and the ability to replace the SSD without soldering to the motherboard.<\/p>\n\n  <p>When Apple launched the MacBook Pro 2016, the radical choices it made - Touch Bar, butterfly keyboard, removal of all ports in favour of exclusive USB-C - created an exodus to the second-hand market. Thousands of users kept or bought back a 2015 model, and this phenomenon continues to this day. Visit <a href=\"\/en\/macbook-butterfly-keyboard-problem\/\">butterfly keyboard fiasco<\/a> (2016-2019) has only reinforced this trend.<\/p>\n\n  <p>But in 2026, after more than 10 years of service for the first examples, the question is seriously raised: is it reasonable to continue using this machine, or is it time to turn the page?<\/p>\n\n  <h2 id=\"specifications\">Technical specifications in 2026<\/h2>\n\n  <table class=\"tg-table\">\n    <thead>\n      <tr>\n        <th>Features<\/th>\n        <th>MacBook Pro 13\u2033 (A1502)<\/th>\n        <th>MacBook Pro 15\u2033 (A1398)<\/th>\n      <\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-label\">Processor<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">Intel Core i5 dual-core 2.7-2.9 GHz (Broadwell)<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">Intel Core i7 quad-core 2.2-2.8 GHz (Haswell\/Crystal Well)<\/span><\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-label\">RAM<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">8 GB DDR3 1866 MHz (soldered)<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">16 GB DDR3L 1600 MHz (soldered)<\/span><\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-label\">Storage<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">128\/256\/512 GB SSD (replaceable)<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">256\/512 GB\/1 TB SSD (replaceable)<\/span><\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-label\">Screen<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">Retina 2560\u00d71600, IPS<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">Retina 2880\u00d71800, IPS<\/span><\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-label\">GPU<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">Intel Iris Graphics 6100<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">Intel Iris Pro + AMD Radeon R9 M370X (optional)<\/span><\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-label\">Connection<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">2\u00d7 Thunderbolt 2, 2\u00d7 USB 3.0, HDMI, SD, MagSafe 2<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">2\u00d7 Thunderbolt 2, 2\u00d7 USB 3.0, HDMI, SD, MagSafe 2<\/span><\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-label\">macOS max<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">macOS 12 Monterey<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">macOS 12 Monterey<\/span><\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n  <\/table>\n\n  <p>The crucial point to remember: the <strong>RAM is welded<\/strong> connector to the motherboard on both models and cannot be upgraded after purchase. The SSD, on the other hand, uses a proprietary Apple connector that accepts third-party NVMe adapters - the most impactful upgrade possible.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 id=\"ce-quil-fait-bien\">What the MacBook Pro 2015 still does well<\/h2>\n\n  <p>Despite its age, the MacBook Pro 2015 is still capable of comfortably handling several categories of tasks, especially after an SSD upgrade.<\/p>\n\n  <p><strong>Office automation and web browsing<\/strong> Word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, email and web browsing with a few tabs open. With 8 GB of RAM, avoid exceeding 15 tabs in Safari or Chrome. With 16 GB (15-inch model), the margin is more comfortable.<\/p>\n\n  <p><strong>Multimedia and streaming<\/strong> Netflix, YouTube (up to 1440p), Spotify, Apple Music - everything works without a hitch. Hardware H.264 video decoding is supported, but not hardware H.265 (HEVC), which can get warm when playing 4K video.<\/p>\n\n  <p><strong>Lightweight development<\/strong> VS Code, Xcode (older versions), Terminal, Git - a web developer can still work on small projects. Compilations will be slower than with a current Mac, but are still feasible.<\/p>\n\n  <p><strong>Connection<\/strong> It's the clincher. The MacBook Pro 2015 natively offers what users of recent MacBook Pros have to get via dongles: USB-A, HDMI, SD card reader, MagSafe. For amateur photographers and videographers, this is a real practical advantage.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 id=\"limites\">Limits in 2026<\/h2>\n\n  <p>Let's be frank: the MacBook Pro 2015 is showing its limitations in a number of areas that will become problematic in 2026.<\/p>\n\n  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/macbook-pro-2015-limits-obsolescence-2026.webp\" alt=\"Limits and signs of obsolescence of the MacBook Pro 2015 in 2026\" title=\"MacBook Pro 2015 - limits and obsolescence in 2026\" width=\"1200\" height=\"568\" loading=\"lazy\">\n\n  <h3>End of macOS support<\/h3>\n\n  <p>The MacBook Pro 2015 is stuck at <strong>macOS 12 Monterey<\/strong>, released in 2021. Apple has stopped releasing security updates for Monterey, which means that vulnerabilities discovered since then are no longer corrected. For use involving sensitive data (online banking, business emails), this is a growing risk. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/fr-be\/100100\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Apple update policy<\/a>, As a result, only the last two major versions of macOS receive regular security patches.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>Incompatible applications<\/h3>\n\n  <p>More and more applications require macOS Ventura (13) or Sonoma (14) as a minimum version. In 2026, some recent versions of web browsers, creative tools and productivity applications will no longer install on Monterey. This phenomenon is set to accelerate.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>Performance against Apple Silicon<\/h3>\n\n  <p>In terms of raw performance, the gap is huge. An entry-level MacBook Air M1 (available second-hand at very reasonable prices) outperforms the 2015 MacBook Pro 15\u2033 in virtually every benchmark - CPU, GPU, energy efficiency. The M1 also offers two to three times the battery life. Our <a href=\"\/en\/macbook-air-vs-macbook-pro-comparison\/\">MacBook Air vs Pro comparison<\/a> details these differences.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>Aging battery<\/h3>\n\n  <p>After 10 years, the original battery will probably have exceeded the recommended 1,000 charge cycles and its capacity will be significantly reduced. Autonomy may fall to 2-3 hours instead of the original 9-10 hours. A <a href=\"\/en\/mac-battery-replacement\/\">battery replacement<\/a> is often necessary to continue using your MacBook on the move. See our <a href=\"\/en\/macbook-battery-complete-guide\/\">complete MacBook battery guide<\/a> to assess the condition of yours.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>Dated WiFi and Bluetooth<\/h3>\n\n  <p>The MacBook Pro 2015 has WiFi 802.11ac (WiFi 5) and Bluetooth 4.0. It's functional, but the WiFi 6\/6E and Bluetooth 5.3 of today's Macs offer much higher speeds and stability, especially in dense environments.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 id=\"upgrades-possibles\">Possible upgrades to extend it<\/h2>\n\n  <p>If you want to keep your MacBook Pro 2015 for a few more years, two upgrades will make all the difference.<\/p>\n\n  <table class=\"tg-table\">\n    <thead>\n      <tr>\n        <th>Upgrade<\/th>\n        <th>Impact<\/th>\n        <th>Estimated budget<\/th>\n      <\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-label\">NVMe SSD (via adapter)<\/span><\/td>\n        <td><span class=\"cell-desc\">Read\/write speed multiplied by 2 to 4 compared with the original SSD.

A 500GB or 1TB NVMe SSD with an M.2 adapter to Apple's proprietary connector literally transforms everyday performance. The MacBook Pro 2015 is one of the last models where this is possible without soldering - take advantage of it.<\/p>\n\n  <div class=\"info-box tip\">\n    <strong>Good to know:<\/strong> As the RAM is soldered in, it's impossible to upgrade from 8GB to 16GB. If your model only has 8 GB, upgrading to SSD is still beneficial, but the multitasking limitations will persist. Remember to close unused applications and avoid Chrome (which uses a lot of RAM) in favour of Safari.\n  <\/div>\n\n  <h2 id=\"macos-compatibilite\">MacOS compatibility and alternatives<\/h2>\n\n  <p>Being stuck on macOS Monterey is the main obstacle to using the MacBook Pro 2015 in 2026. Several options exist to get around this limitation, each with its compromises.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP)<\/h3>\n\n  <p>This open source project lets you install recent versions of macOS (Ventura, Sonoma, even Sequoia) on Macs that are not officially supported. The installation works and performance is fair to good, but some features may not be fully operational (partial GPU acceleration, unstable AirDrop). Security updates require you to go through OCLP each time, which requires a minimum of technical skill.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>Linux<\/h3>\n\n  <p>Installing Ubuntu, Fedora or Linux Mint on the MacBook Pro 2015 gives it a complete second life with a modern, secure and high-performance system. Hardware support is excellent on this model (WiFi, Bluetooth, trackpad, retina - everything works). It's the best option for those who don't need macOS-exclusive applications. A <a href=\"\/en\/dual-boot-mac-windows-boot-camp\/\">dual boot<\/a> is also an option if you want to keep macOS in parallel.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>Staying in Monterey<\/h3>\n\n  <p>The simplest option. macOS Monterey remains functional for the majority of everyday tasks. Install a recent web browser (Firefox and Chrome continue to support Monterey for the time being) and a <a href=\"\/en\/is-antivirus-necessary-on-mac-tests\/\">good security software<\/a> to compensate for the lack of system updates.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 id=\"acheter-occasion\">Should I buy a second-hand MacBook Pro 2015?<\/h2>\n\n  <p>In 2026, the MacBook Pro 2015 can be found on the second-hand market for between \u20ac200 and \u20ac500, depending on configuration and condition. Is it a good investment?<\/p>\n\n  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/macbook-pro-2015-occasion-achat-2026.webp\" alt=\"Tips for buying a used MacBook Pro 2015 in 2026\" title=\"Used MacBook Pro 2015 - buyer&#039;s guide 2026\" width=\"1200\" height=\"568\" loading=\"lazy\">\n\n  <p><strong>For a very tight budget<\/strong> (student, secondary machine, basic office use), the 15-inch model with 16 GB RAM and an upgraded SSD remains a viable option. Check the number of battery cycles (less than 500 is ideal, over 800 you should consider a replacement) and the condition of the screen (lines, spots, excessive reflections due to the degrading anti-reflective coating - known as \u00abstaingate\u00bb).<\/p>\n\n  <p><strong>For the same budget<\/strong>, And consider a second-hand MacBook Air M1 (2020), which now costs between \u00a3400 and \u00a3600. It offers superior performance, up-to-date macOS, a new or slightly worn-out battery, and software support for at least another 4-5 years. Unless the connectivity of the 2015 is essential, the M1 is objectively the best choice in 2026.<\/p>\n\n  <p>If you're thinking of selling your old Mac before or after you buy it, take a look at our article on <a href=\"\/en\/sell-old-mac-guide\/\">how to sell your old Mac<\/a> to get the best price.

The amount of RAM is as configured at the time of purchase: 8GB for the basic 13-inch model, 16GB for the 15-inch. This is a definitive limitation that cannot be circumvented.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n      <div class=\"faq-question\">\n        <span>Which SSD should I choose to upgrade my MacBook Pro 2015?<\/span>\n        <span class=\"faq-toggle\">+<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n        <p>The MacBook Pro 2015 uses a proprietary Apple SSD connector. You have two options: an original Apple SSD (more expensive, from a donor Mac) or a standard NVMe M.2 SSD with an adapter (better value). For detailed advice, see our guide to\u2019<a href=\"\/en\/choose-install-mac-ssd-guide\/\">upgrade SSD Mac<\/a>.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n      <div class=\"faq-question\">\n        <span>Is the MacBook Pro 2015 still good for web development?<\/span>\n        <span class=\"faq-toggle\">+<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n        <p>For front-end web development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript), yes - provided you have the 16GB RAM model and a fast SSD. For heavy back-end development, Docker, or iOS development with recent Xcode, performance will be insufficient.

Known weak points are the battery (normal wear and tear after 1,000 cycles), the screen's anti-reflective coating (staingate) and the SSD flex cables on the 13-inch model. The scissor keyboard and mechanical trackpad are very durable.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n      <div class=\"faq-question\">\n        <span>Is it better to buy a 2015 MacBook Pro or a second-hand MacBook Air M1?<\/span>\n        <span class=\"faq-toggle\">+<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n        <p>For the majority of users, the MacBook Air M1 is the best choice: superior performance, up-to-date macOS, better battery life and guaranteed software support for several years. The MacBook Pro 2015 is only justified if you absolutely need its native connectivity (USB-A, HDMI, SD) or if your budget is really limited (under \u00a3300).<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n      <div class=\"faq-question\">\n        <span>Can the staingate (detachment of the anti-reflective coating) be repaired?<\/span>\n        <span class=\"faq-toggle\">+<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n        <p>Apple's free staingate replacement programme has long since expired for 2015 models. Two solutions remain: complete removal of the coating (with a specific product, leaving a shiny but clean screen) or replacement of the LCD panel.
