Hi there,

Maybe it's just me, but does anyone out there also feel the keyboard from Macbook Air is better than the Macbook Pro's? I own both machines and I write for a living. It's funny how the MBAir's keyboard feels better to type and for long sessions of writing. For me it's a shame, because the screen is so much worse than MBPro's. Does anyone have the same feeling? I really wish to get a new M5 MBpro, but when I think about the keyboard difference...

Thanks for any shared opinion.
 
Interesting. I can't compare since I don't have the MBA, but now I am curious to try it out. The next time I am at the Apple Store, I will give it a shot.

That said, coming from a ThinkPad (X1C6) with its classic ALPS keyboard, I have been spoilt. I do find the MBP KB quite different in feel but I attribute that to what I am used to. I don't seem to be making mistakes while typing, and I think while the sound of the MBP KB is different as compared to the ThinkPad, it is also a bit more silent.

Cheers!
