    This Magic Trackpad review is the ONLY review that actually addresses the clicking. I didn't even realize the Force click feature until you brought it up. Force click is an important point to bring up and it boggles my mind that people can make a review on the Apple Magic Trackpad and not only not say one word about Force click, but not say a word about the clicking at all.

    I'm an audio engineer so as you can expect, scrolling and clicking gets old. This might be my saving grace. Now I can just use gestures to zoom, cut, copy and everything else. Such a relief. Thanks.

    @zizimugen4470 6 років тому +4

    Having been using a macbook pro 2012 for about five months now, I'd say that it's probably the best trackpad experience I've had so far. The texture and the gestures are intuitive and feel natural, and I've even been considering getting a good tkl keyboard, a magic mouse 2, and a trackpad in tandem.

  • @kaleidoscopeon
    @kaleidoscopeon 8 років тому +4

    The reason which makes me stay with Macs is their awesome gestures for navigating the OS. And the hardware they make which makes these gestures so easy and something you cant live without.
    Oh and I love the Magic Trackpad, the Magic Mouse is too limiting for me.

    A track+ball person, but every day the trackpad makes more sense because of the number of gestures and features they are adding to it. Trackball has always been my favourite tracking input mechanism, I think this was started by the trusty PowerBook 145b that came with one. thank you for the complete review.

    This Trackpad has been sitting in my desk for 3 years, I guess I'm not that curious. Anyway, I would pick up the little booklet that it came with and after looking at it for 5 minutes, I'd give up. I was about to just throw the thing away, then thought just Google it and find out WHAT it is, your video came up and voila you succinctly answered my question in a way a 73 year old could understand. Thank you. Maybe I understood you because we are both from Michigan-Ha-Ha.

    I uses to be a track pad guy, but then I bought the mx master for video editing. (Planning to have the track pad to the left for gestures) then when I got the mx master, I was AMAZED at how many buttons it had! Especially since each one can do about 5 functions at once! After probably a total of 5 hours tweaking and adjusting, I fell in love with it, and it does everything and more than I could ever of hoped for.
    ^mini review right there... Totally worth it!

  • @clementrodrigue
    @clementrodrigue 4 роки тому

    As I do a lot of video editing on iMovie, as well as photo editing, I prefer the Tradkpad, and a lot. When I pick up the mouse, I feel like I'm going back 25 years. The years when the mouse seemed to be the future. I don't want to go back to the past. I did try to edit with a mouse, but alas, the work is very long and daring. Example - it is impossible to rotate an image, or text at 12º with a mouse (if the software was not provided for this). With the Trackpad, you can write on an image and change the angle of your text at will.

  • @RoMaxe123
    @RoMaxe123 4 роки тому

    Dual-weilding is best. Trackpad on left side for gestures, zooming, and swiping - and mouse on right of keyboard for everything else.

  • @Ttomisabeast1581967
    @Ttomisabeast1581967 8 років тому

    I personally am both because the trackpad is easier to use for things like mission control, switching through multiple full screen apps, etc. I use a mouse for gaming like TF2 and Minecraft on my Mac.

  • @macinman
    @macinman 8 років тому

    For Me, I would consider myself a traditional keyboard / mouse person. I have to say that for a portable device such as my iPhone i like the gestures and touch screen, etc. For a computer, even though i've given gestures a fair chance when using the macbook pro as a laptop, i still like a traditional mouse, and full sized keyboard over apple's little keyboards. While I use the apple aluminum keyboard that is a full sized keyboard including the number keypad all apple's recent wireless options i won't be buying until they give a full sized keyboard with keypad.
    I'm not saying I don't like ideas behind the new products, I just think it's geared to a specific group of people.
    Anyway great reviews as always keep up the great work!

Too many others think they are Hollywood movie producers when they are simply reviewing consumer electronic products. Thankfully you did not fall into this category. Great review.

    The best features of Force Touch are being able to find the definition of words online (even though it's not always as accurate) en previewing websites. Bummer that I have the last rMBP model without this trackpad (Mid 2014), but you can actually tap with three fingers, and it'll do the exact same thing, and I actually like that better!

  • @TheOriginalStevenH
    @TheOriginalStevenH 8 років тому +1

    I don't currently use the track pad except for on my MBP 2015! I like the setup however again the height doesn't match my previous generation magic keyboard, the batteries are not replaceable. and the cost! You can maximize functionality by attaching the trackpad to the left of the keyboard and the magic mouse to the right. Wish there was a way to backlit the track pad especially through the glass but it might mess the sensor... not really complaining since I don't use it now but was hoping to get one in the future here. I will have to go to Amazon to get the previous generation trackpad and now its no longer mainstream will pay a smaller cost for the accessories.

    I run Logic ProX studio software on a Mac Mini and I use the previous Magic Trackpad and love it. I no longer use a mouse at all. I also ordered an Apple Logic Pro keyboard which is the width of a standard keyboard but the short cut keys are color coded and it has a number pad like a standard keyboard. I can't say that I'm going to run out and buy this trackpad yet just for the couple of feature enhancements that were made, but when I'm in the market for one again, I would probably try it out.

  • @cheesebusiness
    @cheesebusiness 4 роки тому +2

    Hi! I have a few important questions about the trackpad and I'll really appreciate if you answer:
    1. Does Magic Trackpad 2 respond as quick as the MacBook trackpad? I mean the input latency, i.e. the time between you move a finger and the cursor moves on the screen. The latency is noticable on Magic Trackpad 1 and it feels tough comparing to a MacBook trackpad so I consider an upgrade.
    2. Does Magic Trackpad 2 perform multitouch gestures (e.g. scrolling a webpage) as smooth as the MacBook trackpad? The 1st generation has issues with this too.
    3. How well does the trackpad battery feel after a long time? E.g. how much can the trackpad work on a single charge after 1 year of usage compared to the initial condition?
    To make the long story short, do you notice any difference or inconvenience while using Magic Trackpad 2 compared to the MacBook trackpad?

    I've used the Magic Trackpad for years with my iMac. Would love to upgrade, but can't justify the price before Christmas!

    Must say, this was a very informative review. Now I have an idea of what I'd like to purchase for my photography editing and sims.

    Hi Mike,
    Thanks for taking the time to put this up.
    Just wondering if you knew this, can't seem to get a straight answer. Called Apple directly, the answer I received was 'Yes', though the lady did not seem to have hands on experience with it. Looking online and speaking to a few third party retailers, the answer was 'No', and they sounded confident, but also didn't have one on hand to test.
    My question is, can the Magic Trackpad 2 be hardwired, and subsequently disable any bluetooth transmission? Do you know?
    Thanks for your time.
    James.

    One good thing about the extra width, is I'd sometimes activate Notification Center by accident when I'm trying to scroll side to side. So the extra width means I wouldn't need to get my fingers so close to the right anymore. Too bad it's so much more expensive than the original Magic Trackpad. I doubt I'll be able to buy one, unless I can find one on sale somewhere.

    He talks about the Magic Trackpad 1 having a physical right and left click (they are in the rubber feet). I still use the 1 and I never use the physical click. Just lightly tapping with a finger is enough to click, tap with two fingers for rightclick.
    The Magic Trackpad 2 is still awfully expensive, even secondhand. So if you can find a cheap Trackpad 1 then I highly recommend it. It’s still awesome and you don’t have to use the physical click!

    I like using the trackpad for basic browsing and scrolling in a web browser (mainly Safari), but when it comes to using a DAW for audio, video editing software, or playing games I have to use a mouse.

    I used to be a mouse person, preferring the Magic Mouse. However, now I am a trackpad person, with the Magic Trackpad 2.

    I definitely prefer the trackpad. I have the trackpad 1 with the battery compartment, but I would really love this model. I will probably trade in
    My current trackpad on eBay and by the trackpad 2 once I have saved up enough cash. Great vid. Thanks.

    Logitech MX Master is definitely the best mouse I have ever used but, you're right. While it does have a good deal of functionality it exchanges using gestures for increased precision and the ability to switch between three devices. K811 keyboard is great for the same reason.
