Mac users have always been able to right-click by tapping with two fingers, but now, users can designate the lower right section of the touchpad for right-clicking.Īnother welcome design change is the MacBook Pro's LED-backlit display with a flat, black bezel. For instance, we were able to zoom in on a Safari page by spreading two fingers apart, but we could not replicate this in Firefox 3. Unfortunately, multi-touch still works only in Apple applications. Mastering the art of multi-touch took a few minutes, but once we did, it became addictive.
The touchpad has just the right amount of resistance. Oddly, we found the touch button stiffer on the Pro than on the highest-end MacBook. It's the kind of elegant innovation that made us think, "Why didn't we think of that?" Once you realize that you can press down on the lower end of the pad, using it feels intuitive. Rather, the entire pad doubles as a button.

This glass touchpad is 39 percent larger than on previous MacBooks, and new multi-touch gestures allow users to activate Expos or switch between applications with four fingers (the instruction manual includes illustrated instructions for taking advantage of multi-touch).Īside from its size, the most notable thing about the touchpad is that it has no buttons. The MacBook Pro builds on the last generation's multi-touch trackpad, which allowed users to manipulate on-screen objects as they would on an iPhone: spread your fingers to zoom in on a Web page, or peruse photos with the swipe of a finger. Although both the MacBook and MacBook Pro's island keybords are quiet and comfy, the 13-inch MacBook's keys feel shallower by comparison. The keys are whisper-quiet and comfortable to type on, but for people used to pillowy keys it might take some getting used to.
