Apple is set to overhaul its MacBook Pro lineup, with a new entry-level model featuring a redesigned design arriving sooner than anticipated, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. This shift will bring a redesign to the base model sooner than ever before, with a 6-month gap between the debut of the redesigned high-end MacBook Pros and the entry level model.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro with M7 chip is expected to debut in early 2027, just after the launch of the high-end MacBook Ultra, code-named K104. Apple is also preparing a variant with the current design and M6 chip, scheduled for a fall release alongside the redesigned high-end models. This redesign is rumored to include a thinner chassis, OLED displays with touch support, and possibly a Dynamic Island.
The decision to prioritize M7 chips over M6 generation chips is expected to result in a more affordable entry-level MacBook Pro, potentially undercutting prices from a year ago.
