Hello, I have just bought my first OSX device, a 2015 MBP with the new trackpad.
But I thought it gave feedback clicks through haptic but didn't actually click.
Mine still physically clicks down when pressed when the MBP is turned off.
 
The surefire way to tell is to click it with the machine completely powered off and if it clicks then it's not the new force touch trackpad.
 
My fault, I just tried it again and you're right, it doesn't click when off.
I wouldn't have believed it before but it really does feel like a click.

It's kind of a mind f**k because it really does feel like a click.

My thoughts exactly. When I got mine recently, I was disappointed that it actually clicked, until I powered off and realized that it doesn't really move or click. Bizarre.
 
you should play a video in quicktime and fast forward. By applying more pressure it will fast forward faster and give haptic feedback inbetween pressure zones.

That's kind of cool and weird all at the same time. I hadn't had a chance to try that yet.
