I picked up a new MBP and I have to say I do like the Touch Bar. It's certainly not a must-have, but Apple's implementation is pretty polished. My favorite use is music/volume control. I can control music from both iTunes and a buried YouTube Safari tab at the same time through the Touch Bar.
- izacus 10y agoHow is that different from pressing Fn + F keys before?
- nilkn 10y agoI'm not sure which key combinations specifically you're referring to. How would I use the old function keys to switch music playing from iTunes to a paused YouTube tab in a Safari window on another desktop? And how would I use the function keys to scrub through a song to find a specific part all without giving focus to the music playing app? Maybe all this was possible before but I never knew about any of it. If that's the case that's another strength of the touch bar -- I had no issue discovering this functionality this time.
- merb 10y agoNot sure why you were downvoted. Actually it works with Fn + F, too.
- freehunter 10y agoCan you control two separate volume dials with the normal function keys?
- merb 10y agosame as touch bar, if you switch the window they have the functionality of the new window. (actually depends if the software supports it, else it will use the old window)
