I think those keyboards are great on the smaller more portable macbooks but I don't understand why the 'pro' models are favouring a couple of mm in size over a more practical keyboard designed for 'pro' use.
I use a 2015 MacBook Air at home that I can type on for hours without any wrist pain.
Any advice on getting my lemon 2017 (multiple faults) replaced with a new model rather than another 2017?
> The new keyboard has the same dimensions and look as its two predecessors, but the keys feel just a little bit different. They're quieter, for one thing. They have a softer, less click-y feel that is a little closer to the pre-2016 models' chiclet keys. We found the new keyboard to be a little nicer to type on, but it's not a radical difference. It's unlikely to convert the detractors, but it's a welcome iteration…
But did they fix the keyboard? I have a new MB Pro for work and two weeks of using the flat keys actually gave me horrible wrist pain. Now I use an external keyboard. I use a 2015 MacBook Air at home that I can type on for hours without any wrist pain.
“an improved third-generation keyboard for quieter typing.”
Looking forward to reading the first reviews.
Hardware is slightly less polished, but no major complaints there (except for how poor the buying experience was).
Still, keyboard works. It would take something amazing to win me back (like a custom CPU that just completely redefines what we expect from battery life and performance)
