Watch Apple’s reveal video for the touchscreen MacBook Pro

Apple unveiled its first MacBook Pro with a touchscreen display during the "Pro and tell" event on Wednesday. The new laptop features a PROLED XDR tandem OLED panel that can reach up to 2000 nits of brightness and boasts a 120Hz refresh rate. This innovative display is housed within a device weighing as little as three pounds. Apple's CEO, John Ternus, teased the glowing Apple logo on the laptop lid, a feature that returns after being absent for several generations.

Pre-orders for the touchscreen MacBook Pro opened today, with the 14-inch model priced at $2,899 and the 16-inch variant available for $3,399. Delivery is scheduled for November 6th. Touchscreen laptops have been commonplace on Windows machines for over a decade, but Apple's debut of this technology marks a significant departure from the company's usual "fashionably late" approach to innovation.

Rumors of a touchscreen MacBook Pro had circulated for years prior to its eventual realization. The new MacBook Pro joins a suite of other announcements made by Apple, including an entry-level MacBook Pro, M6 iMac, and an OLED iPad Mini.
