Totally agree. I can’t use my 2017 MBP keyboard for more than a few minutes without feeling pain in my joints. As many others have said, it’s like typing on concrete. I’ve seriously thought about selling my computer and buying a 2018 MBA instead, which feels much nicer in the store.
My 2018 MBP keyboard failed on me twice already. My friend’s has failed 4 times. A third friend has had no issues.
If you get a 2018 MBP, be prepared to take it in for replacement frequently.
