With Windows installs, they use Windows Precision drivers and feel at least as good as a Surface Book trackpad. YMMV with Linux however.

I wonder about the trackpad, too. Apple has always smoked everyone else at trackpads. After using theirs for so many years, every time I touch another it feels crusty and unresponsive.

It's pretty good. The click is definitely better than my 16-inch MBP (it's physical instead of motor-driven). Moving the cursor feels precise.
