Nonetheless, the Touch Bar stays visible and legible even if you are sitting at an off-angle to your Mac. It’s also optimized for viewing at a 45-degree angle, looking down from above, which is odd for any screen. You can’t adjust its brightness yourself, for example, because if it was too bright it would start looking more like a display than a set of keys. The Touch Bar is an OLED strip that’s tempting to call a display, but Apple wants developers and users to think of it as an input device, not a display. Even for a premium price-and these Macs aren’t cheap-I think the Touch Bar makes this a much more compelling buy than the MacBook Pro with function keys. The amount of useful shortcuts it adds is ridiculous, and this is before most third-party developers have even had a chance to add Touch Bar support. The Touch Bar brings my favorite things about the iPad Pro’s software keyboard to the Mac. These 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pros with Apple’s new Touch Bar are both. But while I appreciate a Mac that’s smaller and lighter, I’d rather have a Mac that’s easier or just more fun to use. Apple gave its new MacBook Pro a thinner, sleeker case, which demanded a new, lower-travel keyboard, a new venting system, and even a smaller battery.
