There is no serial number for MacBooks affected with the keyboard problem

It's been a couple of days since Apple launched the free repair program of possible problems with the butterfly keyboard of the MacBook and MacBook Pro, in this Apple repair program does not say that the problem is of a series of specific equipment, add all the equipment with this keyboard and this is good and bad at the same time.

El keyboard repair program with the new butterfly mechanism explains that due to dirt or the like, some keys can get stuck and stop working. On some occasions the company denied the problem but now they have accepted it as such and they do not have an end date either, which can present several doubts for the user.

Can all of us who have these Macs have this problem?

Here the answer is clear, yes. What happens is that there are nuances to take into account when we talk about all users and it is not the same for a user who does not take the MacBook out of the office that for those who take it everywhere and above all it can be affected by dust or similar.

Newer keyboards have so little travel that they are more susceptible to sticking when some dirt gets in, but This is not going to happen to everyone although it could. In my case, the 12 ″ MacBook is from October last year and I have no problem with the keyboard, even though I use it more outside the home than inside.

Not all users are going to have this problem but we are susceptible to it and therefore Apple should look at the keyboards of the new MacBook released this year so that they do not have this problem with the passage of time. It must also be said that with a little basic cleaning care they should not be reproduced, but that did not happen with the old keyboards and therefore must be revised for next generations of MacBook
