Apple model number lookup FAQ
What is an Apple model number?
An Apple model number is usually an A-number, such as A1278, A1502, or A2338. It helps identify the hardware family, but the exact configuration may require checking the EMC number, order number, processor, release year, and display size.
Why can one Apple A-number match multiple Macs?
Apple sometimes reuses a model number across nearby years, regions, or configurations. The lookup result helps compare related models side by side.
