Touchpads in laptops seem to feel more like jelly after it's dried in the sun than the sleek glassy perfection they once were years ago. It’s unfortunate because the touchpad is arguably one of the most important features of a laptop. It is one of the two key sources of input. So why are touchpads getting worse?
This really hit me when I reviewed the Lenovo Legion 7i Gen 9. Even the best gaming laptops can sport terrible touchpads, and I’d forgive it because you’ll likely use a discrete gaming mouse instead. My patience has run thin. Blame the Legion 7i, featuring the greatest touchpad I’ve tested in years.
