Touch Macbook Pro OLED review: The first slam dunk of the Ternus era
The MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display introduces a touchscreen and OLED to the MacBook lineup, and it was worth the wait.
Apple has finally released a touchscreen laptop after years of waiting. The MacBook Pro OLED, featuring the PROLED XDR Display, is the star of this new machine. The display is a tandem OLED with ProMotion technology, providing a brighter, more detailed and immersive viewing experience. The display is so bright that it surpasses previous MacBook Pro models, with 2,000 nits of peak brightness for HDR content.
The display also boasts deep blacks, vibrant colors, and excellent contrast. Apple has designed the display to meet industry standards for video editors, photographers, animators, 3D artists, and color graders. The laptop's touchscreen functionality might be limited, but it offers responsive touch and could potentially evolve with new Gesture API support.
Despite the absence of a stylus, the laptop's performance remains impressive, making it a slam dunk of the John Ternus era.
