Explore Hub βIdentify Your Keyboard Mechanism
Apple uses two primary key mechanisms on recent MacBook laptops. Knowing which mechanism your laptop utilizes ensures a perfect keycap and hinge clip match.
| Mechanism Type | Supported Years | Feel & Characteristics | Installation Difficulty |
|---|---|---|---|
| Scissor-switch (Magic Keyboard) | 2020βPresent (and pre-2016) | Longer travel (1mm), softer click, traditional scissor hinge clip. Very reliable. | Easy (snaps in horizontally/vertically) |
| Butterfly Mechanism | 2016β2019 | Extremely shallow travel (0.55mm), sharp click, fragile hinge. Highly sensitive to dust. | Medium (requires aligning top edge first) |
Keycaps and hinge clips are not interchangeable between butterfly and scissor mechanisms, even if the keycap looks identical. Always cross-reference your MacBook model number (e.g. A2289) and release year before purchasing.
