Each keyhole and the surrounding keyboard vents are individually milled, enhancing both the premium finish and the structural integrity of the deck, significantly reducing keyboard flex. Speaker holes are drilled at an incredible 100,000 RPM, achieving a clean, high-precision design that spans the full width of the laptop.
