Hey Guys

Hoping you can help me out, or if I'm just being OCD.

I decided to upgrade from my 2012 MBP Retina 15 inch 2.3, and went out yesterday and found an open box 2015 MBP 2.5 15 inch at Best Buy for $700 off. Seems like a good deal, but had a tiny like pin point ding on the top of the shell, and the box was pretty rough, so it was obviously a return.

I took it home and started setting it up, but Ive noticed that the keyboard is much different than my 2012. It feels cheaper, and is much 'clickier'. The keys seem looser and make a lot more noise. Just wanted to check in to see it that's normal, or if somethings wrong here? Also, the trackpad is a lot stiffer to push but I assume thats because of the force touch.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
 
The trackpad click can be adjusted in the settings. The keyboard may or may not be normal, your best bet is to compare it to a display model in an apple store or even the best buy where you purchased it.
