I think my MBP is pretty awesome and I love the Touch Bar.
- reubenswartz 8y agoI've heard people saying that they hate it, that they don't mind, or that the find it somewhat interesting. Never heard anyone say that love it. Can you give more details?
- max76 8y agoMy favorite thing about the touchbar is that I can easily use all the function key functionality without having to memorize what they do for every application. A lot of applications have programmed really useful integrations into the touchbar, and this is getting better over time. It replaces a lot of my track pad usage, and generally makes interacting with my computer faster. Touchid is also nice, but I think apple should consider putting faceid on the mbp.
- IronCoderXYZ 8y agoI love the touchbar as well, because it allows me to easily change volume (swiping a bar rather than tapping the same button) etc. However, the ESC key is also on the touchbar, which makes using vim pretty annoying.
- malshe 8y agoI haven’t heard anyone say that before either. As many others I know, I don’t mind it. But I have made it more useful using this neat utility called Energy Bar - https://github.com/billziss-gh/EnergyBar https://github.com/billziss-gh/EnergyBar I mostly use the function keys in RStudio for R programming and for everything else I use Energy Bar for quick app launches and volume controls.
