MACBook Pro keycaps quickly wearing away

Is apple aware of the poorly made keycaps on the new MacBook Pros?

I think it is rather disgusting that Apple should put cheaply made keycaps on their new very expensive MacBook 15 and 16" 2019 and 2020 models. I have quite a few MacBooks Pro and within months the lettering on the keycaps started to wear off.

I also have a bunch of Dell and IBM laptops and not one of them have a smudge on their keycaps.


Is apple willing to send me new sets of keycaps for my existing worn keys?



MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 10.15
