 all right welcome so this is an example of a 2017 15 inch MacBook Pro almost maxed out that is now starting to develop problems with the keyboard too so the background here is I had a 2016 version of this that Apple tried to repair when there were multiple problems with the keys and after three repairs they eventually gave up and sent me a 2017 version is that that worked great for three months but now after three months I start to have problems both with the spacebar occasionally resulting in double taps and in particular the return key that doesn't necessarily always work when I strike it a particular in the lower part so to show this I figured that I'm gonna record both the screen so that you see when I type xx6 let's see xx6 marks the spot and then we're gonna type the return key to you so first let me show you the part that does work so if I hit it hard in the middle of the return key and then type every mix x and return things work just great we can try that again no problem whatsoever so let's try the lower part in the middle or in the middle part it kind of works in the leftmost corner it rarely works so let's try the left most corner x you can probably even hear the sound of the key right see occasionally works when I strike more in the middle of course I don't systematically use the left most corner of the return key but the problem is that you can strike the return key you even hear the sound I'll be quiet for a second so you do hear the sound so if you touch typing you're just hammering away the keyboard you can hear the keys move you feel that the key is moving the only problem that it doesn't generate any character or in this case any return character on the screen which I think would be fine you can't expect the keyboard to work perfectly if it's a $250 Chromebook if it's a $3,000 MacBook I do expect that the keys actually work when I strike them so back to you Apple
