Apple’s First Touchscreen MacBook Pro Is Up for Preorder

Apple has been quite active recently, unveiling a range of new and improved computers and tablets. Among these offerings is the first touchscreen MacBook Pro, featuring a PROLED XDR display. This innovative laptop allows users to interact with MacOS in a new way - swiping to scroll, tapping to close or maximize applications, and pinching to zoom, much like using an iPad.

The MacBook Pro is available in 14" and 16" sizes and comes with either an M5 Pro or M5 Max chip. Pricing for this high-end device ranges from $2,899 to a staggering $14,549, depending on the specifications. Additionally, Apple introduced the first iPad mini with an OLED display, boasting an A20 Pro chip and Apple Pencil compatibility.

Starting at $699, this new tablet is set to launch alongside the touchscreen MacBook Pro on November 6.
