I personally prefer the physical buttons.
On my MBP, it really feels like I have to press with far too much force to get it to "click" (which isn't great given I suffer from nerve damage, but I felt the same about the trackpad even before that). By comparison, I just make a "purposeful", light tap on any other trackpad.
- kaoD 7y agoWhich year? I found 2016 MBPs awesome to click.
- GordonS 7y agoIt's a 13" MBP I bought from Apple in 2017. The keyboard is utter garbage too - it would be comically bad if the dn thing hadn't cost so much :/
- emilecantin 7y agoIf you have a newer (2015+) MBP with Force Touch, that's actually configurable! Go in System Preferences -> Touchpad -> Point and click, you can choose between "Light", "Medium" and "Firm" clicks. You can also enable just touching to click. Also, you can just use the bottom part of the trackpad exactly like you'd use a button, it ignores touches if you just rest your thumb on it. Works really well.
- GordonS 7y agoI should have mentioned, but it's already on the light setting, and it still feels like I need to press it too hard. I recall asking my wife to try it (she'd never used a MB before), and she also found it unpleasant.
