I couldn't recommend those laptops in good conscience. Thankfully, my laptop was still under warranty for the repair. ![]() ![]() Out of warranty and without AppleCare+, those repairs could cost hundreds of dollars, all for a single (or more) defective key. In that same repair, the company had to replace the top case, as well. For one of my own repairs on my 2016 15-inch MacBook Pro where the "G" key stopped working for a second time, Apple had to replace the entire logic board, which included the processor, RAM, graphics chip, storage, and the motherboard that all those components rest on. ![]() Repairs often involved replacing the entire top case of defective units, which includes the entire section where your keyboard lies, as well as the laptop's battery. After the one-year standard warranty - and if you didn't buy AppleCare+ - you could be left with a massive repair bill to fix a mundane issue with your butterfly keyboard.
