Wrinkling on underside of Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro 13-inch

[drysdalk]

Hi,

As per the subject, over the last month or so I've noticed a strange wrinkling, for want of a better description, on the underside of the Magic Keyboard for my iPad Pro 13-inch. It seems to be slowly spreading up one side of the surface. Everything still works fine, this appears to be purely cosmetic in nature, whatever it is. I'll ask the Apple Store to take a look next time I'm near one, but just wondered if anyone else here had experienced anything similar with theirs ?

I have not but have seen similar posts where the MKB has bubbling - yours is not unique.

I’ve seen some posts about this issue, and there was a similar case on Reddit recently.

Wow, that one from Reddit looks even worse than mine ! For everyone's information, I got my Magic Keyboard replaced through Apple at no cost. I made a Genius Bar appointment just under a week ago, and they confirmed it was an issue that could be repaired under warranty. I picked up the new keyboard today. Time will tell if this happens again, I guess !

One interesting thing: every wrinkled Magic Keyboard I've seen photos of so far has been the white one, never the black one. I wonder if that's relevant somehow ? Again, I guess time will tell.
