Apple prepping touchscreen OLED MacBook Pro for 2026 — new report claims new model will incorporate on-cell touch tech for the first time

Apple is reportedly preparing to introduce touchscreen technology to its Mac lineup with an OLED MacBook Pro expected to enter mass production by late 2026. This model will incorporate on-cell touch technology for the first time, blurring the line between MacBooks and iPads. Ming-Chi Kuo, a reliable Apple insider, suggests that a more affordable MacBook powered by an A-series iPhone processor is also in the works for a potential launch in 2025. If Kuo's predictions are accurate, Apple's move towards touchscreen MacBooks would mark a significant departure from its traditional design philosophy.
