    Hi

    When I click on my battery symbol on my Macbook Pro, it says "Condition: Replace Soon".

    Im curious if I should replace it now as I need my laptop badly for the next few weeks?

    Im concerned if I change my battery, I might have issues with the laptop and if I don't change my battery I might have issues with my laptop as well.

    Anyone have any recommendations on changing it in CompuB or leaving it until the new year?

    the only issues you're likely to have, is the battery not charging or not offering enough power to the laptop, so long as it's plugged in, you should be fine.

    Partners mac was like that for over a year, until I bought a new one as a b-day gift. Had like 10 seconds of battery life XD. Once replaced, no more "warning". and there was never any issues caused from it. (aside from shutting down if the wire was pulled out and you didn't notice.)

    You won't have any issues if you change your battery.
