X1 Carbon Gen 9: Lenovo has to be careful with the ThinkPad keyboard

• ksec 5y ago
  Key Travel at 1.5mm is still bearable. Somehow Apple think 0.7mm was good, and then went to 1mm after the butterfly fiasco. I still dont understand why the whole industry is moving their keyboard to literally no key travel distance.

    Shorter key travel = thinner laptop

      or more space for other things, say thicker battery

    It's not all just about travel. Keyfeel is important too. If I had a mushy keyboard, I'd certainly trade some travel for more snappy hysteresis.
