Apple started paying out its $50 million settlement over MacBooks defective butterfly keyboards


Checks of up to $395 started arriving.

The class action lawsuit was filed in 2018 and claimed Apple knew that the keyboard design was defective and concealed it from customers. According to the settlement's website, people who received two or more topcase replacements within four years of purchasing an affected MacBook will get between $300 and $395. Only Apple customers in California, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, and Washington who needed repairs were eligible for payouts.
