Some Plastic metallic kind of smell coming from MacBook Air M1

Its been 2 days of me buying this M1 chip MacBook Air and since first day I noticed one thing, whenever the laptop is turned on it has a kind of metallic smell which also seems like plastic at some point coming from in between the keyboard.

It's mostly located in to a bit left from the centre of the keyboard. It is a mild smell. Is it because it's new or is it something bad going on inside it?


Its does't heat. It's cold even tho the smell comes. It's a mild smell.


Do I need to be concerned. There is no dust. It's brand new.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.2
