New touchscreen tandem OLED MacBook Pros and iPad mini coming next week
Apple is set to unveil touchscreen tandem OLED MacBook Pros alongside a revamped OLED iPad mini and M6 Mac refreshes at its upcoming October 28 ‘Pro and Tell’ event.
Next week, Apple is set to launch OLED touchscreen laptops and a revamped iPad mini. This marks the first time Apple will release touchscreen MacBooks, following a long absence from the market. The event, scheduled for October 28, will unveil upgraded 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros, as well as a newly designed iPad mini. Apple fans are excited to see how touch functionality will seamlessly integrate into macOS, introducing new touch gestures that are currently exclusive to iPadOS and iOS.
The new tandem OLED displays are expected to significantly enhance visual output, delivering superior contrast ratios, richer color accuracy, and improved energy efficiency. The laptops will retain their familiar high-end chips, with the entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro receiving a new base M6 chip. The iPad mini, on the other hand, will adopt an OLED panel similar to the latest iPad Pro generation, with mixed leaks suggesting either a standard 60Hz screen or a 120Hz ProMotion display.
Notably, the iPad mini will also feature an innovative vibration speaker system, generating sound directly through the frame. Despite these changes, the new products are expected to maintain similar profiles to their predecessors, though the MacBook Pros will be noticeably lighter.
