Have read that there are many issues with the butterfly keyboard on the newer Macbook (2016 onwards). Anyone here has personally encountered any issue with it? I understand there is an extended warranty of 4 years for the 2017/2017 models but I heard keyboard replacement may take several weeks.

Yes, as you probably need to leave your Macbook with them for a few weeks before getting it back.. A bit sian.. but now all Macs in the market are using butterfly keyboard so not much choice.. I read that even the Gen 3 version has issue.

That's what I read in MacRumours forum. Maybe it will be faster in SG? But definitely not easy to replace so will definitely take time even parts available.
