Apple shows pricey touchscreen laptops, a first for the iPhone maker
Apple says the redesign meets demand from creative professionals and adds a tandem OLED screen, new hinge and up to 16TB of storage.
- On Wednesday, October 28, Apple CEO John Ternus unveiled the company's first touchscreen MacBook Pro models in Los Angeles, with 14-inch and 16-inch variants featuring M5 Pro and M5 Max chips; pre-orders opened immediately for November 6 availability.
- Apple previously resisted adding touchscreens to laptops, with former CEO Steve Jobs calling the design "ergonomically terrible" in 2010; this release reverses that long-standing strategy for Mac products.
- The redesigned laptops feature a tandem OLED "PROLED XDR" display reaching 2,000 nits peak brightness with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, Dynamic Island, and a reintroduced glowing logo on the lid.
- Base models start at $2,899 for the 14-inch version and $3,399 for the 16-inch model, while Apple continues selling non-touch M5 Pro and M5 Max configurations alongside the new touchscreen variants.
- While Windows laptops have featured touchscreens for over a decade, this MacBook Pro launch positions Apple to compete more directly for professional users prioritizing on-device AI performance and creative workflows.
