Trackpad problems 2016 15" Macbook Pro

There are two spots on left and right edge (to the bottom) where if I try to click exactly at the edge, I cannot click. I assumed this is due to construction, even though the click isn't real, the trackpad does move a bit when you press, and here it is firm. This doesn't look like an issue to me. Certainly not a place where I would ever click (I literally have to press the edge).

Wouldn't worry about it, if it's on the very edge. If not, exchange it.

 

Are you using tap-to-click, or are you using the actual clicky parts in the lower corners? I had lots of issues with the trackpad, but some people seem to report that it may have been a hardware problem with a specific machine, not a general problem with the model.

Biggest issue I had was difficulty getting it to recognize clicks. I have tap turned off, I just click in the lower left/right corners, and I had... pretty erratic luck with clicking. Especially, though, the palm detection works against just bumping the touchpad, but it was really bad at keeping palm contact from turning a left-click into a right-click.

 

Someone pointed out that it could be the palm rejection. If you click somewhere else and drag you can get those edges to register.

Might need to be tuned more. I don't think it's a hardware problem

 

I don't think palm rejection should be rejecting actual clicks, complete with the click sound and significant pressure.

 

I'm betting it's a palm issue. I've found I've had to be carful or occasionally a click won't happen (rigid). I'm 100% certain it's because I'm touching the pad somewhere else with my wrist, because as soon as I adjust, the second click attempt registers.

 

I did some pretty careful testing with my hand and arm completely away from the laptop except for the finger I was poking the trackpad with, and still had pretty significant difficulty with clicks. I got better performance, slightly, when I told it to use lighter pressure.

... But then I got a laptop which has actual physical buttons which are separate from the touchpad area, and I'm much happier.

 

I was totally frustrated with the trackpad and didn't use it at all. Totally erratic, palm rejection was horrible and it just kept right clicking when I didn't want it to. Once I updated to 10.12.2, the issues were gone. If you updated and are still having issues, go and exchange it.

 

I encounter same problem. @grandaddy111, I assume your third MacBook and those in Apple Store had same problem isn't it?

See my thread (for same problem).
