I really want to get one of these, but I can't get myself to. I have a 2015 Macbook and I hate the keyboard. I thought I'd get used to it but never did, the one in an older Air is so much more comfortable to me. I went to the Apple Store twice to try out the new keyboard and, while it's better, I can't imagine being happy with it. Does anyone else feel the same way or is it just me?

same. without f keys and with fewer connectors, this generation is almost strictly a downgrade from the 2015 version.

also.. the touch bar.. I'm a programmer, I don't look at my fingers when I type, why would I want to have a screen there

I didn't think I'd like the new keyboard but I was forced to use it as it's a work-supplied machine. After less than a month of using it, it's my favorite keyboard of any machine I own, including my mechanical keyboard. The travel is nice, the keys feel solid, it's got a nice click, and I can type faster. Took a bit of getting used to, but it's awesome, imo.

I've had my 2016 MBP for about ten days. Just used my air for the first time since then and couldn't believe how spongey and rattley the old keyboard felt. I know a few other people who feel the same way. Personal preference and finger habits are a big factors with these keyboards, and seem to be something people adapt to at different rates, or not at all.
