Apple Unveils Its First-Ever MacBook Pro With a Touchscreen OLED
The new laptops add OLED panels and touch support as Apple responds to long-standing requests from pro users, Bloomberg reported.
- On Wednesday, Apple unveiled its first laptop with a touchscreen, the MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display, at its 'Pro and tell' event in Los Angeles.
- Apple previously resisted touchscreen laptops, with former executives Steve Jobs and Tim Cook arguing the interface was ergonomically unsuited for macOS, though the company has now reversed this stance.
- The new laptop features a tandem OLED display and Dynamic Island, with the 14-inch model starting at $2,899 and the 16-inch version at $3,399, supporting up to 128GB of memory.
- Pre-Orders are open today with deliveries commencing November 6, as the company enters a premium market segment despite total PC shipments dropping 20% in the 3rd quarter.
- Reports suggest future models could be marketed as 'MacBook Ultra,' with second-generation versions expected in late 2027 using M7 Pro and Max chips, as Apple CEO John Ternus positions the advance as transformative.
