Far fewer of these updated keyboard are developing the problems than the older version, but the warranty still applies for a free repair. There is, apparently a third redesign in the pipeline. . . We will see if it solves the dust problem once and for all. I solved it by putting a keyboard overlay on my MacBook after I took advantage of a keyboard, top, and battery replacement. Very thin and solves the dust issue, not to mention the occasional splurting of my Diet Pepsi on the keyboard when I read something totally absurd the Democrats are doing.
Hi Sword. My 2016 Macbook needed its keyboard replaced which Apple provided for free. Hope this laptop lasts as long as my iPad1 (now retired) and mini ipad2. Still using my old Dell desktop offline, never had any trouble with it. Problem is the software ages out.
