Just got my 13" MBP and right away I noticed that the track pad requires extra pressure to register a click. The force that i would usually press with, still makes a clicking sound but there is no response. I have to press it much harder then I pressed on any of the computers in the apple store. Is this just because its brand new or should I concerned and schedule a genius bar appointment?
Got a tip for us?

If you believe it's not working correctly -- and especially if other trackpads are much easier to click -- then yes, I'd get it looked at.
(Hope this isn't patronising) Have you tried tapping at the bottom of the tackpad? You can't really tap from the middle up

^By far the worst facet of what I consider to be a small disaster😡. It's much easier to click at the bottom and that's just how it is. I was hoping they'd fix it but I guess not.🙁
you could adjust the click sensitivity by removing the base and then the battery to access the trackpad's base which has a screw in which you turn to adjust the height of the trackpad making it easier to click.
Does this by any chance void the warranty? Because I know it says do not remove battery on the battery.

Ok thank you everyone, I went down to the apple store and they said I did have a problem and exchanged it for a brand new one. Hopefully this one wont cause me any problems 😀
