<strong>Lets</strong> <strong>talk</strong> <strong>about</strong> <strong>MacBook</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> <strong>keyboard</strong> <strong>keys</strong><br />

I use the <strong>MacBook</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> as my personal laptop at work and an iMac at the office, so<br />

I live in the apple ecosystem and it serves me well, but the <strong>keys</strong> on the latest and<br />

greatest <strong>MacBook</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> <strong>keyboard</strong>s.. I get that apple is always trying to make the<br />

latest laptop thinner and thinner but at what cost? maybe the next <strong>MacBook</strong> <strong>Pro</strong><br />

will have no physical <strong>keyboard</strong> and we just type on a surface with no feedback?<br />

hope not.<br />

What I like <strong>about</strong> the this <strong>keyboard</strong> and what I don't like, I like the fact that it<br />

looks very slick and the actual size of the <strong>keys</strong> are large and the print is very easy<br />

to read, my fat fingers are always able to reach all the <strong>keys</strong> without issue. What I<br />

don't like is the lack of travel of the hinge clip when I press on it, it does not travel<br />

enough for me, I personally still prefer the old macbook and <strong>MacBook</strong> pros where<br />

you get the longer travel, the butterfly clip they are using in this <strong>keyboard</strong> is once<br />

again used because they want to make this <strong>keyboard</strong> thinner but the feel its gone,<br />

its less clicky like the older models, and finally lets <strong>talk</strong> <strong>about</strong> replacing these <strong>keys</strong>,<br />

the pursuit of a sleek laptop also took a toe here, there is less gap in-between the<br />

<strong>keys</strong>, that is great and all so less dirt and crumbs get under the <strong>keys</strong> but making<br />

the repair process more of a pain, you have to find the smallest screwdriver to pry<br />

the key up to pop the key off.<br />

Overall I think its just a bad design on this <strong>keyboard</strong>, the latest is not the greatest<br />

when it comes to apple <strong>keyboard</strong>s, they had some great <strong>keyboard</strong>s in the past,<br />

great feel, great travel, and repairs on them were very simple so please Apple,<br />

listen to your customers and bring back the older and more clicky <strong>MacBook</strong> <strong>Pro</strong><br />

<strong>keyboard</strong>s!
