And is that when we talk about patents we cannot look at another company other than Apple. The company has thousands of these patents and some of them remained simply in that, patents, but many others have been implemented in the devices of the firm after a while.
In this case, what we have on the table of patents is one that makes references to Force Touch in the Touch Bar of MacBook Pros. Yes, it seems that this would be one more step for a Touch Bar that has not set as well as the firm itself would like and it is that its usefulness is interesting but the performance is not removed in most cases.
How could it be otherwise, the patent has been reflected on the web PatentlyApple, after being Officially registered in the US Patent and Trademark Office. Now that iOS devices do not have this function active, the Force Touch is officially patented in Macs. This, as we say, does not mean that Apple has to launch a team with this function, it simply approves one more patent that we do not know if we will see someday on the Mac.
On the other hand, it is important to say that the Touch Bar of the Mac that came to replace the function keys, brightness and other options of the upper part of the keyboard in the MacBook Pro, is going through the equipment without pain or glory that we say for these lares, and it is not that it is a problem to have the touch bar instead of the typical buttons but it is not that touch accessory on a MacBook that is totally necessary or functional. This will taste but in most cases users show some indifference to this "extra" that is mounted on computers Apple.
