They did it with the iphone 4 and "you're holding it wrong", with the 2010 to 2013 MacBook pros that would overheat and die, the coating on their 2013 to 2016 MacBook lcds that would come off if you looked at it wrong, the many bent iphone 6's, the "new thinner" keyboards on their 2015 to 2019 MacBooks (seriously, they used a defective design for four years, and then finally just went back to the old keyboard design as the fix), and now this. Not the first time apple has built something with a design flaw, never really owned up to it, and offered free replacements or repairs in hopes of getting ahead of a lawsuit. Common sense has kept me safe apparently. My suspicion is these lawyers saw deep pockets and went for it.Īnd I never got any notice from Apple saying I needed to be careful about putting anything between my screen and keyboard. I've had one since the very beginning and it's doing just fine. I have yet to hear of one single incident from anybody I know who has an M1 MacBook Pro. Therefore, it remains to be seen whether Apple will admit the issue and what the plaintiff and people similarly situated will get from the "Think different" company.
That plaintiff wants Apple to compensate the cost of repairs for himself and other people with similar problems as well as award "reasonable attorney's fees and costs." But screen repairs are very costly, just like lawyers in the U.S. The case's plaintiff believes that this notice is essentially Apple's recognition of the issue even though the warning was not issued to any specific Mac laptop. Truth to be told, Apple issued a notice on August 27 (opens in new tab) asking owners of MacBooks not to use any camera covers, palm rest covers, or keyboard covers with their laptops because "the clearance between the display (screen) and the top case is engineered to tight tolerances leaving any material on your display, keyboard, or palm rest might interfere with the display when it's closed and cause damage to your display."
