    Has anyone came up for a solution to the Keyboard Flex?

    I also have a problem with the keyboard skipping some keys when i start tying faster, but the Flex is really terrible for me.

    I love this laptop but do an immense amount of typing on it and really hate the feel. I know when I put in more memory there was 3M sticky pads under there. Has anyone tried to use those?

    haven't hear any complains about the keyboard flex on G53, but I guess they put the sticky pad there for a reason just in case.

    You can try but think twice if you won't be upgrade wireless or hard drive for a while, because if you are going to you will need to remove the keyboard in order to open the bottom cover.

    Already replaced to SSD, wireless, and Memory so should be good to go. But most reviews I read complain about the Flex also so just wondered if anyone was able to fix it

    if there are keyboard flex the only way to fix it is tape it, I did the same on my other laptop.
