Don't understand the problem. I like new keyboard more than the previous one, I'm indifferent to touchbar and mapping escape to capslock was the best thing ever. The only thing I hate is keys getting stuck, but it actually stopped happening(2017 model). I wouldn't like to come back to old keyboard now.
- WAHa_06x36 7y agoThe problem is that the keyboard breaks very easily, at random.
- dkersten 7y agoMy previous work laptop (2017 MBP) had keys sticking within about 3 or 4 months of getting it.
- nottorp 7y agoIf you're always in a clean environment, the keyboard is ok. I've used 3 consecutive mac laptops on the same balcony, open air. The one from 2010 and the one from 2014 are just fine thank you. The one from 2018 already has keyboard problems and it hasn't even been a year since i bought it. So yes, the keyboard is complete and utter shit.

- spookybones 7y agoYeah that’s crucial. I’m still using my 2012 MBP. I clean it once or twice a year, more for aesthetics. It’s great not having to worry about where and how I use it (outside of extreme environments) every time I use it.
- adwi 7y agoFeel the same—but I’d probably feel differently if I had a keyboard failure, especially before the free repair program. Going back to the previous generation feels mushy now...
- worldsayshi 7y agoYeah, I was very sceptical about both the keyboard and the touch bar until I actually got a new MBP for work. Now it's my favorite keyboard. Less effort pushing the keys seem to always mean swifter typing.
- eqtn 7y agoThe new keyboard is less wobbly than the old keyboard. It would have been an awesome keyboard, if there is little more travel and they had completely fix the keys getting stuck issue. Maybe returning back to the scissor keys confirms that there isn't a solution yet.
