I suffer from this. My arrow keys are especially bad.
What a joke. Pay $3k for a high end machine that has a worse keyboard than a $400 hp. Screw Apple.
Apple are not fixing anything. They are giving customers some temporary respite.
They are simply fitting a new defective part or parts to a computer that will fail in precisely the same way that it did before.
Glad I’ve never owned an Apple product.
Are the 2018 laptop keyboards updated? Should i buy it or not?

It would be good if you didn’t fucken design a shit keyboard to begin with the least you can do is fix it I dunno why this is even an announcement they should have repaired every keyboard without question.
Aren’t they just replacing it with the same keyboard that will likely end up having the same issue???
What about all those people who paid for the repairs? :/
Yay. My Apple care to waste🙃
Geez… Put the quality components inside that you charge for, and make changing batteries a simple thing. FU Apple!
I already sent it and they changed keyword and battery for free and still is a shitties
These keyboards are dogshit even when they “work.” Apple and Jony Ive continue to degrade Apple’s products with ever-shoddier construction, for no reason. This is barely better than a membrane keyboard from the ’80s, with almost no key travel and barely palpable keys. For what? This asinine “thinness” mania, which Apple has used as an excuse for degrading and crippling one product after another?
Apple is done.
They should be fixing or recalling EVERY laptop not a select few , the issue may well be intermittent and not show up at the store which is what typically happens.
apple users, u deserve ALL the shit apple dumping on u!
I’ve only had my MBP for a few months and one of the keys stopped responding, but luckily I got it working again. Good to know they’re fixing this issue.
They are going to repair a problem caused by their shitty design. Wouldn’t that be free?
Apple: Powered by ignorance and arrogance.
My space bar finally
“Years ahead” apple says…
Maybe Apple could just put all the blame for the keyboard glitch on Intel…
That isn’t repair service.. The design and mechanism is a flaw. They have to change something to address the issue. Problem will reoccur again.
mail my laptop in? no thanks. ill take it into the apple store when I’m next in a country that has one.
I feel like apple purposely “breaks” the apple products to get technology attention.
Well that’s interesting they are doing something to maintain customers.
Apple is a Scumbag company, scum dumb people
There is nothing Pro about these laptop — wake me up when you put in a gtx 1060 / Vega 56 like in performance & some ports — ps this keyboard is trash — I will not purchase more apple laptops
Wow that’s a miracle.. free from Applesheep??
They need to go back to the scissor design, the new design is flawed. They tried to reinvent the wheel and failed.
its a WHACK Keyboard. and Rossman has pointed out that fact long ago but noooooo Apple fanboys and Apple themselves always say its only a small percentage that has the problem and YOU SNOOZE YOU LOSE if you didn’t get APPLE CARE.
Jesus F Christ, good for Apple that they finally acknowledged its a defective keyboard but how about those numerous people that had it repaired for hundreds of bucks from your Apple Stores?
No issues with my 2009 Macbook keyboard. They don’t make Macbooks like they use to. No more magsafe charging cable or scissor spring keys or disc drive
Apple is nervous about their lousy PR
Ive got 12 inch mac i had issues with keyboard but just blow under the keys and its fixed
Lesson: don’t buy anything at Apple.
Next time. Just don’t buy new macbooks. They don’t deserve the money. Not coming from me but a lot of people on the internet and in real life have complained about Apple’s products.
They are going to repair the keyboards, not fix the problem of their unusable keyboards.
that’s mean apple will continue using butterfly swith keyboard for upcoming macbook lineup 😂
I have a hp laptop . And it doesnt use this pos “butterfly” tech. Idk why apple did this
Still love my MacBook ❤️
So are they going to replace keyboard for free every time there is an issue with key? They are just replacing with same flawed keyboard design.
some dust chips bend the butterfly thing under the keyboard and now i have like 8 mushy to non-responsive keys and 2 falling out due to trying to repair myself and i had this 2016 macbook for just 6 months. i recommend you get a plastic keyboard cover if you dont mind it or just wait for next gen macs if you havent bought one yet or the old gen if you cant wait.
Can we get a full refund for a flawed product
Also remove stupid useless touch bar. Just looking at it makes me upset.
Thank Johnny for butterfly idea
Crap apple for stupid people
Next Apple suggests to carry a keyboard 🎹 with you
I have a thinkpad that still works after 12 years of use.
