MBP 2020 Uneven keyboard backlight

[Raikal]

Hey,

I just noticed my keyboard backlight has some uneven keys. For example the right Command button icon is way brighter than the left. Also the Escape key has some gradient where the 'e' is much easier to read than the 'c'.

It's a bit hard to capture in a picture, but this one kinda works:

Anybody else having this issue? Not sure if it's worth sending it back because of this, but once I saw it I cannot stop noticing it.

I just noticed this with mine. What did you end up doing with yours?

Got a replacement. Esc is still not optimal, but the keys are now all more or less the same brightness.

I just notice a difference with my 3 key. Seems slightly brighter than the rest for some reason.

3 is also one of the brightest on the new device, but not as bad as the CMD was.

ok then I will just assume its by design an not bother trying to return it then. Thanks for confirming that it is bright on yours also, gives me piece of mind with my OCD lol.
