MacBook, since its listing, has been favored by many Apple users. However, if the MacBook is used for a long time or some water accidentally gets into it, it may cause the keyboard to malfunction. After the warranty period, repairs will be troublesome and expensive. However, users can actually replace the keyboard themselves to save maintenance costs.
