Force Touch Trackpad – coraz bliżej do iPada →

Fraser Speirs:

Most of the reviews you’ll read about the trackpad go on about the technical implementation of the haptic click effect and how it „really feels like a click”. This is totally true, but it wildly misses the point about how Force Touch changes the interaction with your Mac.

If you think about it, this really takes the Mac another step closer to more direct manipulation of objects on screen. Once you realise that you can genuinely click with your pointing finger equally anywhere on the trackpad, you can get the sense that dragging something in Keynote on the Mac is a lot more like dragging something in Keynote on iPad: point to it, press on it, move your finger instead of „point to it, click a button with your thumb, hold it, move your pointing finger, release your thumb, release your pointing finger”.
