I would also add that if they can also get the same quality trackpad as that of MacBooks, I would also flock to it.

- criddell 9y agoThis has bothered me for a long time. Why are PC trackpads so awful? Why don't PC makers just do what Apple does with their trackpad?
- lai 9y agoI think it's patented.
- lobster_johnson 9y agoIsn't a trackpad essentially a touch screen? Non-Apple phones to that just fine. There's the tactile feedback, but even the old-style physically-moving trackpad would be better than what vendors have today.
- gjjrfcbugxbhf 9y agoOr even what phone manufacturers do with their screens. The problem isn't ability though it's cost. The market for laptops is seriously cost competitive and customers don't know if a trackpad will be good or bad until after purchased (with the exception of a few brands like apple).
