Touchscreen MacBook Pro to Debut Today With These 5 Features
Some reports have suggested the new high-end MacBook Pro models that Apple is expected to announce today might not be called MacBook Pros at all. They could in fact be something altogether new and more exciting – " MacBook Ultra ," perhaps – marketed as the company's top-tier laptop offering.

Apple is set to unveil its new high-end MacBook Pro models with several exciting features. The new machines are expected to be called MacBook Ultra, positioned above the current M5 Pro and M5 Max MacBook Pros. The existing M5 Pro and M5 Max chips will be used in these touchscreen models, with more powerful M7 Pro and M7 Max chips expected for second-generation releases in late 2027.
These new MacBook Pro models will feature an OLED display, bringing deeper colors, higher contrast ratios, and better HDR output compared to the current mini-LED displays. The new models will also introduce touchscreen functionality, allowing users to seamlessly switch between touch input and traditional trackpad or mouse input.
Apple is reportedly working on a reinforced hinge and screen hardware to prevent the display from bouncing back when touched, addressing a common issue in existing touch PCs. Additionally, the MacBook Ultra may feature a thinner design and a redesign of the display cutout, potentially similar to the iPhone's Dynamic Island. These modifications aim to address user complaints about the notch on the current MacBook Pro models and create a more seamless user experience.
