What other people think of the keyboard shouldn't have anything to do with your decision. As a keyboard collector, I can definitely say there are a vast range of keyboards made to satisfy all sorts of typing experiences. The butterfly keyboard is just like every other specialty keyboard. It has big fans and big haters. You have no idea which group you belong to until you spend a solid week using it.
Exactly this. All laptop keyboards are some variation of "rubber domes" and IMHO they all are crap. It is just a matter of how much crap is OK to any given user. They are designed for portability and convenience, but not for their typing experience.
If you want a real comfortable typing experience you'd hook up a mechanical keyboard and comfortably type away.
The 2015's are actually reliable and durable...
Those are features that are nearly priceless for some of us.
No way you'd see me buying 3+ year old technology now over the keyboard or some other perceived reliability concerns. I'd either skip this model year or buy from a different brand. I'd go as far back as 1 model year, but more than that and I'd keep my money in my pocket.
