I just got this thing and when I click the trackpad it feels and *sounds* less tight/precise/premium. There's this cheap-sounding faint metallic clicky sound going on if I compare to say an M2 14" MBP I have in the house. Just wondering if anyone else is seeing similar?
Got a tip for us?

mine is normal just all my other mbp's over the years but i do turn on tap to click as soon as i can.
No but sometimes they *do* work their way loose, or a screw may not be fully tightened. I've seen some complaints from M1 owners that it's a bit more wobbly than it was when new.
Does it feel grainy?
Macbook Air 15 inch - Trackpad texture
I bought the Macbook Air M2 15-inch and compared to my office laptop which is a Macbook Pro M1 16-inch, the trackpad texture feels much coarser. The best way I can describe the difference is that the MBP's trackpad feels like smooth glass with gloss finish when I scroll but the MBA's trackpad...

Easy way to test….turn the macbook OFF, then see if you can detect any kind of wobble or other movement; otherwise, the built in haptics will be fooling your senses when it’s turned on. 🙃
