Does Microsoft hardware have a decent trackpad, unlike all other PC laptops? My MacBook trackpad is great and I'm baffled as to why PCs can't replicate it.

- coder543 8y agoWindows trackpads in mid-range or better laptops have been every bit as good as their Mac equivalent for several years now, in my opinion. Unless you think Force Touch is something desirable on a trackpad, in which case you'll be disappointed. Surface is a weird hybrid of laptop and tablet, and I haven't been impressed by its floppy keyboard or tiny trackpad. A Lenovo X1 Carbon, on the other hand, is just incredible.
- Someone1234 8y ago> Surface is a weird hybrid of laptop and tablet, and I haven't been impressed by its floppy keyboard I agree, but only as far as the Surface Pro/Go are concerned. The Surface Book and Surface Laptop have no such issues, and have a very good keyboard feel. I don't currently recommend a Surface Pro or Go for that reason. I will happily recommend the Book or Surface Laptop however.
- coder543 8y agoI agree, I definitely meant to refer only to the Surface Pro. I wish the Surface Laptop had USB-C, and I'm not a fan of how expensive the Surface Book is, but I recognize the Surface Book might be awesome for certain people.
- amf12 8y agoSurfacebook. Absolutely. Its as good as my old MBP if not better. Laptop, not so much, but that's understandable since its not a real attached trackpad.
- draw_down 8y agocmd-F, "trackpad", no results. So probably not, otherwise they would have brought it up at some point.
