I actually can't get the functionality concept of the touchbar.

If you tell me there is a set of virtual keys on say a mobile phone. I kinda agree it works because you are looking at where you type. But having it on a laptop where you are bound to have to lower your vision to visually get a view of the touchbar in order to use it is kind of an annoyance to me. More so especially with auto correction. Not to mention not touch typist friendly in the first place. Maybe force touch can be added later.

Other than pure novelty, and possibly another part that fails. I don't really know what to make of it.

Don't really like butterfly switch keyboards as well.

sorry might confuse .. It's apple touch ID .. It's started on IPHONE 5S.
The diff with latest iphone SE,iphone 6,6s,7 are they included something security call Secure Enclave. and NFC so you can pay via phone or apple watch or macbook pro
