Nearly half of the third-gen Apple butterfly keyboards at Basecamp have failed. There are few other personal reports with similar percentages.
Second problem is that it will cost a lot of money to fix your keyboard out of warranty.
- TheOtherHobbes 7y agoThat's an amazingly high percentage, and suggests staggering incompetence at Apple HQ. A company with that kind of market cap should not be in this situation.
- gnicholas 7y agoYeah it will be expensive to fix out of warranty. Apple has extended the warranty to 4 years for the affected machines, but it seems like after that we’ll be screwed. The resale value of these things will suffer because it will cost $600 to get them fixed at that point. They’ll be fine for use with external keyboards, but I wouldn’t recommend anyone buy a used one for use as a regular laptop.
