I just looked to check. Still no physical Fn keys, still shallow butterfly keyboard. That's a pass.
Hopefully Apple comes to its senses some day and creates a computer that is designed for actual work, where a single beard follicle is not going to make it unusable midday.
- tomstuart 7y agoThe Magic Keyboard uses scissor switches, not butterfly.
- lmilcin 7y agoAnd how do these scissors work with beard follicle? It's all the same to me, really, if it can't survive piece of hair. For the past 20 years I have been using Thinkpads. My last one is T440s which I bought immediately it was available and still wait for it to die. I would like a MBP but seeing what the Thinkpad went through I just don't think so. I spilled stuff on it not once but twice, once hot latte and once a liter of mineral water in a bag. I had to open it and stand it on its side while open so that water drains out of it... Then I had to disassemble it and dry individual leaves of which the screen is composed of. I had to take the rest of the day off in both cases to save my laptop but other than that I was ready for work the next day, files intact, tools in place.

- lmilcin 7y agoThinkpad keyboard is completely unlike Apple keyboards, however the technology is called. Just the key travel on Thinkpad is probably more than entire thickness of Apple keyboard.
- pmart123 7y agoHaving both a macbook and a Thinkpad, the Thinkpad trackpad is absolutely horrendous to use.
- nathancahill 7y agoNot butterfly, scissor.
- mrzool 7y agoNo butterfly keyboard on these models. That, at least, is on its way out.
