Tingling Sensation when charging Macbook Pro 13 inch 2015 with Force Touch

Today, I just got my Macbook Pro 13 inch 2015 with Force Touch.


When I charge it, there is a VERY STRONG tingling sensation. Almost feel like a strong vibration. I believe this is what they call a "mild electric shock". After testing the new machine with different power outlets (both at my house and other people houses), with same result .... my fingers feel all numb.


I am going to Apple service next week with this.


Anyone experiencing the same thing?

I called the Apple helpline. They said this problem shouldn't be there and suggested I check with the retailer. I took my MBP back to the retailer. They tested it of a while. and made a one for one exchange as the problem was reported within the "return" period. It seems that some people are not sensitive enough to detect the current leakage. Probably an inherent problem.
