New MacBook models will incorporate a scissor-switch keyboard design in place of the butterfly keyboardIt was reported that Apple is shifting from its butterfly keyboard design to a new one using scissor switches in its later MacBook models. The butterfly keyboard was revealed in 2015 but has since been complained of having issues in it. Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes that the Cupertino brand will incorporate a scissor-switch keyboard design in its upcoming MacBook models, beginning with a relaunch of the MacBook Air sometime this year with the new design installed. Nevertheless, 2020 MacBook Pro units are believed to be accompanied by it. Apple launched its fourth-generation butterfly keyboard with its new 2019 MacBook Pro lineup, so as to decrease the occurrences of these issues.
