MacBook unibody A1342 Mid 2010

All parts of the 2010 model are also compatible with the 2009 model. The rounded shape, the polycarbonate housing and the rubberized base plate left a quite pleasant warm haptic impression. In itself a very pleasing, robust MacBook with Core2Duo CPU and everything else you need.

Typical bugs: Small amounts of liquid on the keyboard often led to keyboard failures, often the power button didn't work anymore after a while.
The polycarbonate case, advertised as robust, was quite prone to scratches, the display lid got slightly larger cracks in the hinge area, the rubber coating of the base plate came off after some time. This was so massive that a special repair program was launched by Apple for several years. In case of liquid damage, not only the keyboard was at risk: Sometimes also the backlight fuse of the Logicboard was affected, so that the display had no backlight and simply remained dark.
