The MacBook Pro could be getting one of its biggest changes in years as Apple is reportedly preparing to bring touchscreen support to its premium laptops. According to a recent report, the upcoming models may combine OLED displays with a thinner design, giving the MacBook Pro a more modern look. Other than that, the Cupertino-based tech giant is also said to be working on a Dynamic Island-style cutout instead of the current notch. The new laptops are expected to retain 14-inch and 16-inch screen sizes while getting upgraded M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. Here’s everything we know about the upcoming MacBook Pro with touchscreen.
According to a recent Bloomberg report, the upcoming MacBook Pro models may come with OLED screens and touchscreen support. The Cupertino-based tech giant is also said to be working on a thinner design, which could make the new MacBook Pro slimmer than the current models.
If that’s not already enough, the display cutout of the device is also anticipated to be changed, as Apple could replace the existing notch with a Dynamic Island-style cutout. While details about the display size are still limited, the new models are expected to retain 14-inch and 16-inch screen options.

The upcoming touchscreen MacBook Pro models are expected to use Apple’s M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. However, it is still unclear whether these Macs will use Apple’s C1X or C2 modem.
Apple is also reportedly looking into adding mobile network support to future Mac computers. If this happens, MacBooks could connect directly to a mobile network without needing an iPhone hotspot.
At the time of writing, Apple has not made any official announcements about the new MacBook Pro models, but reports suggest that the company could introduce them by the end of October along with the all-new macOS 27.2.
