Is it possible to trade in my mac and get an english keyboard version only?

Hi,

Return and refund policy in Thailand.

If you can't return and refund your MacBook Pro, you could Trade-In and get new MacBook Pro with English keyboard.

only issue with this, is that i have the m1 macbook pro 16 inch not the latest model, i currently would want it to just be the same model i am fine with, or am i able to pay someone at apple to just change it round?

You need to contact Apple stores or service centers where you live directly yourself. Nobody in these forums has the kind of info you need.

Once you trade in the Mac, You can purchase any model you want.

You can do that, in fact, before the trade in is finalized. It's just the trade in may not be as great a sum as you've been estimated so it's best to trade then buy.

When you install a different keyboard, only the Gyphs on the tops of keys are different. The entire rest of the keyboard and the rest of the computer is completely identical all around the world.

The keyboard generates key-position codes, and the different languages are produced through Software settings.

The computer can not see those Glyphs, and they are for your convenience ONLY. if you change to a keyboard with only English Gyphs, EVERYTHING else will be exactly the same.

It sounds from what you wrote that your most vexing issue has NOTHING to do with keyboard Glyphs. If you want to lock in English Layout, that is just some simple software settings.

i always misfire and change language randomly

To make that less likely, here are two things you can try:

+Make sure that the box in Settings > Keyboard > Input sources which says Use Caps Lock to Switch is unchecked.

+Make sure that the item in Settings > Keyboard which says Press Fn Key To is not set to Change Input Source.
