The latter was a point of contention for a lot of those who used earlier Touch Bar keyboards and didn’t like the virtual esc key. The Magic Keyboard, which is the same size as the popular desktop version, includes the Touch Bar display, a Touch ID power button, and a physical Escape key. Apple switched out the problematic “butterfly switch” keyboards that kept failing on recent MacBook models for a new “scissor switch” design.
Keyboard and Trackpadįirst up, the keyboard and trackpad. In this First Impressions post, I’ll provide my opinions on the newest MacBook Pro and also provide a few benchmarks showing just how powerful this portable workstation is. I had my order in to Apple for a “fairly loaded” MacBook Pro within minutes after hearing that it was available, and now I’ve been using the computer for about a week. Knowing about the keyboard issues with previous MacBook Pros, I also decided that I’d wait until the 16-inch MacBook Pro was released before making the switch from desktop to laptop. After years of trying to make an iPad or iPad Pro work as a viable MacBook substitute, I finally decided this year that my next work computer would be a MacBook Pro rather than an iMac.
