As a counterpoint, I love my 2017 MBP with Touch Bar.
Keyboard? Awesome. Best keyboard I've ever used. Not a single problem. Ruined me for any other kind of keyboard.
USB-C? Best port ever. Nothing better than plugging a single cable into my dock that powers everything and an external monitor.
Giant touchpad? Rules. Can't go back to the dinky small ones.
Touchbar? Better than F keys.
I have an Air that I open up sometimes, and honestly, the keyboard and touchpad on it are nearly unusable for me after spending time with the new MBP.
ymmv
- nottorp 9y agoI don't suppose you touch type text all day? Edit: I mean, I'm sure the emoji keyboard and large trackpad is better if your work involves the mouse and any of those applications where you have to click toolbar buttons a lot. Just not for typing.
- brandonmenc 9y agoI touch type all day long. I'm a programmer. I also write a lot of long-form emails. I've never typed faster than I have on the new MBP keyboard. again, ymmv.
- scarface74 9y agoEven if you subjectively like the keyboard, objectively they aren't reliable. That's enough of a reason not to go near one.
