Notably, Apple has once again 'rebuilt' the poor 'butterfly' keyboard. This keyboard is quite expected by Apple and equipped on previous MacBook Pro models to significantly improve the device's size and thinness, while the key area is still guaranteed.

There are many opinions that this type of keyboard has "ruined the reputation of Apple in general and MacBook products in particular".

Although there are still significant improvements in CPU and GPU performance after each upgrade, hardware problems, such as the case of the butterfly keyboard, have caused users, or even iFan must also express doubts about the long-term viability of the MacBook Pro as one of the world's most advanced professional laptops. Apple even sued for the deficiencies that customers think the company intentionally brought up their products. Apple has tried to solve the problem but only with relatively small adjustments and this has made many MacBook Pro users unhappy. Will the new material used on this butterfly keyboard be able to completely fix the previous problems, or is it still just a way to delay it to appease the user?

These new laptop models are now available on Apple's online store. Apples said they will start delivery this weekend. For retail stores, the new MacBook Pro model will soon be available in the next few weeks.
