Personally, I hate it. Most of my laptops are non touch: thinkpads, dells. .Even when ram price drops and i could afford the Framework, i would only go for the non pro 13 version. For the ones that came with touchscreen, I disabled it if i can.

Touchscreen just doesnt work for me on a laptop. If i want a touchscreen then i use my tablet or phone.

I have a touchscreen laptop from work. And I only ever used the touchscreen to actually verify that it has touchscreen. Other than that, I have literally never touched the screen.

I have a refurbished thinkpad t480 i bought a couple of years ago that somehow has a touchscreen.

I only ever touch the screen to clean it, usually when it's off, so I just forget it has this functionality.

Occasionally someone else touches my screen to point out something and gets a surprise (and I just think get your mucky fingers off my screen, you degenerate!).

There must be a small script that puts a big sign on the screen whenever someone touches it, just to scare them.
