No surprises here. Just like the lockdown on iPhone screen and part replacements, Macbooks suffer from the same Apple’s anti-repair and anti-consumer bullshit. Battery glued, ssd soldered in and can’t even swap parts with other official parts. 6000$ laptop and you don’t even own it.

    Significantly better than the old hinged ones because the feedback from clicking it is completely even across the entire thing. Can’t go back once you try, IMO.

      I’ve used both hinged and non-hinged Apple touchpads, and the difference is noticeable but minor to me. Certainly not enough to make up for everything that’s wrong with Apple hardware.

        I just don’t like carrying a mouse with me if I want to use my laptop as a laptop. To me the difference is pretty big.
