That's purely software, if you use Windows under Boot Camp on a MacBook it will be identical to a PC

Right, but Microsoft owns both the hardware and the software stack here. It's not like they're reviewing an Asus laptop and complaining about the trackpad.


It's hard for me to believe that Microsoft would not invest in first-class touchpad drivers for Windows for their flagship devices, given that the touchpad is the main way someone would interface with their device, but it's possible that it's entirely a software issue I guess.


Drop Synaptics' driver and use Microsoft's precision touchpad driver.
