Have you stuck a volt-meter to your laptop to see if it is actually running a current through the body of the laptop? If it is, might be worth having the laptop serviced.


Unfortunately no. And I'm currently traveling and don't have access to one.

and It's actually a "feature" of macbooks in general, not this particular one.

I mentioned under another comment:

That A former coworker actually pointed it out to me.

"Ugghh, don't you hate it when you slide your finger across your laptop and it's giving you that buzz?"

I was like "What are you talking about? It's just the brushed aluminum feel?"

He told me to unplug the charger and try again. And Holy moly indeed the buzz stopped.


I would seriously recommend getting it serviced. I have 3 MacBooks in my house right now and none of them do that.
