MacBook Pro OLED rumors: Everything to know about the first touchscreen MacBook
Apple is expected to unveil the long-rumored touchscreen MacBook Pro OLED during its "Pro and Tell" event. Here's what we can expect, based on the latest rumors.
Apple is set to unveil its first ever touchscreen MacBook Pro with an OLED display during a "Pro and Tell" event on October 28. This device, known as the MacBook Ultra, is expected to be slimmer and lighter than current models and will come in 14- and 16-inch variants. The laptop is rumored to be powered by M5 Pro and M5 Max chips instead of the upcoming M6 chip.
These upgrades are expected to make the MacBook Pro the biggest upgrade in the line since its redesign in 2021. While there is no official release date, it is likely to be released the week of November 2. The OLED display in the MacBook Pro is expected to offer a higher contrast, vivid colors, and better HDR than the current mini-LED LCDs.
Additionally, the display will feature a touchscreen, eliminating the need for a notch in favor of a Dynamic Island. The laptop is also expected to be as portable as the MacBook Air due to its thinner and lighter design. Performance-wise, the MacBook Pro is expected to use M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, despite being last-gen chips, as Apple focuses more on AI and better graphics performance.
The MacBook Pro OLED is expected to have a similar design to the current models, with the same keyboard, touchpad, and ports.
