Jony Ive was a pompous hack with no ideas to move products forward. His mania for deleting usability and usefulness hideously degraded Apple's product line, turning what should be excellent products into gimped gimmicks.
He neither said nor implied any such thing.
Yep, for me the butterfly keyboard already failed before it even went into the MBP or showed signs of elevated failure rates, just because it was so divisive. Go back and look at all the 2015 12" MacBook reviews, and nobody was ecstatic about what a great keyboard it was... most of the feedback was that it was tolerable or you'd get used to it. That should have been a massive red flag for Apple about messing with the near universally praised MBP keyboard. Something as fundamental as the keyboard can't alienate half of your customers, even if the other half really love it, if you intend to offer it on every notebook you sell.
The fact that Apple continues to use a keyboard that has almost no key travel is a good indicator that they haven’t really moved away from the design ethos that thinness is better. I don’t think Apple really understands what makes a good Mac (or PC) these days. They are near impossible to fix without paying a great deal of money. Form has truly trumped function in the house that Steve built.
No it hasn’t. Apple still insists on using keyboards with almost no key travel. Not much better than the butterfly nonsense, just more resilient.
No. They come into place from predatory lawyers who make millions while the consumer gets pennies. If there was ever a perfect job for a republican, it would be class action lawyer.Yup that’s how class action usually comes into place, because of all the imaginary issues of people who are not sophisticated enough to use a keyboard.
Ive’s ego served a purpose. He was discount Steve until he got annoying (like Steve did the first time around)
That's totally subjective. The magic keyboard has received rave reviews and most people (including myself) prefer it to the older 2015 and earlier MacBook Pro keyboards. The key travel is great. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's not much better than the butterfly "nonsense". 🙄
I have already stumbled into a few. Their fanboi response is so pathetic. Honestly.
The magic number is three times. If has to be repaired a third time you can request a new device, it is policy. However, it will not be the same year model and it will be new and a like for like replacement, which means you get an updated model. The caveat is you need to call Apple Care and they will take care of it. However, you have to put a hold on file for the cost of the new laptop until you return the old one. Your cut off date does not matter for the repair as far as replacement goes. As long as Apple does not consider it vintage or obsolette you are good.
why did moderator erase the word fat from my post? Whats wrong with fat if you accept being fat and refer to yourself as fat? Sorry Macrumors but if you have to censor peoples perspectives of their bodies I see this as awkward censorship. Is it illegal to refer to myself as fit because that may offend people who are not fit? If this sort of censorship exists on these forums then I dont want to be part of these forums. My girlfriend accepts herself the way she is and jokes about herself. What other terms are illegal on here? thin, curvy, short, bald? can I say I identify myself as fat? aren't you supposed to respect and accept my self identification?
When did you replace it last time? As soon as the models with the new keyboards came out you should have sold your old one immediately if it was out of warranty.
I would have loved to. But they charge an insane amount for their laptops and for me, I can’t replace it every time they come out with new hardware.
