Apple is set to unveil a new MacBook Pro with an OLED touchscreen display later this year. The device will feature several firsts for Macs, including OLED technology and a touchscreen interface. Design updates are expected, with the new MacBook Pro potentially being lighter and thinner than its current counterparts. The screen will replace the current notch with a Dynamic Island, which could unify the user experience between iPhone and Mac.
The 14-inch and 16-inch models will be offered, though it's unclear if they will replace existing models or be sold as premium upgrades. OLED displays will provide richer colors and higher contrast ratios compared to the current mini-LED technology, despite some potential brightness differences. Touchscreen capabilities will complement the existing trackpad and keyboard, with Apple adapting macOS for touch input.
The new MacBook Pro will use the same powerful M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, with the second-generation model set to launch in late 2027 using more advanced M7 Pro and M7 Max chips. The device will be priced higher than current MacBook Pro models, with potential pricing starting at $2,499 for the 14-inch model and $2,999 for the 16-inch model.
Apple is expected to introduce the new MacBook Pro on October 28, 2026, at a product unveiling event.
