Aug 3, 2024, 10:30 PM

Apple has begun distributing payments to owners of MacBook laptops affected by the defective butterfly keyboard design. The compensation is part of a $50 million settlement agreed upon in 2022. Eligible owners of MacBook models from 2015 to 2019 can receive up to $395. This settlement follows over six years of litigation, with the first class-action lawsuit filed against Apple for the flawed MacBook Pro keyboard design. The payments, scheduled for August, have now started to be sent.
