Butterfly keyboard repair - anyone had any recent experience?

Looking forward to hearing what parts were replaced, whether you got a new battery as well.

I assume it's a full upper deck replacement, the cost on the invoice was £550 ish. Will update.

It'll be the whole top casing. So keyboard, trackpad, battery, palm rest as they're all considered one part.

You were correct sir. New battery, 0 cycles, win! Will give this to my daughter and my wife has a shiny new M2 air.

These were the repair notes:

I had my MB done twice under this scheme, each time they had it for about a week.

/edit - I think with the MBP that the part with the keyboard also contains the battery so you might get a replacement battery as well.

Called it

Good result.
