iMac Pro Available Now

I've never used a Magic keyboard. Is it a lot like Macbook keyboards? Do people prefer it over a mechanical keyboard if they want their wrists to not hurt after a day-long use?

I have a 2016 MBP and at work I use a Magic Keyboard.

I prefer my MBP Butterfly keyboard over the Magic keyboard. While the Magic Keyboard has more travel, the feedback and the feel of the Butterfly keys is more satisfying and feels more rigid.

I prefer the bigger escape button on the Magic Keyboard and the fact that dust can't stop my keys from clicking, but that's about it.

But if we put durability aside, Butterfly keys feel much better in my opinion.

I'm hoping Apple figure out a 3rd gen of Butterfly keyboards, with a little more travel and less failure rate.

Its basically what the Macbook keyboards should be. Much more reliable with a little more travel distance, but with the same key stability as the butterfly ones.
