Internal Apple repair doc states 2018 MacBook Pro keyboard includes membrane to prevent debris from entering butterfly keys<div class="feat-image">
</div><p>An internal Apple repair document
obtained by MacGeneration appears to be the most direct evidence yet that
the silicone covers found underneath each keycap in the
2018 MacBook Pro really is intended to make the keyboard more reliable, rather than ‘quieter’ as Apple marketed it.</p>
<p>In an article targeted at repair technicians, Apple writes ‘the keyboard has a membrane under the keycaps to prevent debris from entering the butterfly mechanism’. It also explains that spacebar design has changed and will require a new repair process.</p>
