Apple is reportedly working on a redesigned MacBook Pro that will likely feature an OLED display, touchscreen support, and a Dynamic Island-style cutout. If launched, it would be the first Mac to offer touch input, marking a significant shift in the company’s long-standing design approach.
The upcoming MacBook Pro models will replace their existing Mini-LED displays with OLED technology, according to current information. The new technology will deliver superior contrast and produce darker black tones while consuming less power. OLED technology will enable Apple to create a thinner product while achieving improved brightness and accurate color reproduction.
Reports suggest the existing display notch could be replaced by a smaller camera housing similar to the Dynamic Island seen on recent iPhones. This area may show alerts, media controls, and system activity without taking up additional screen space.
To support touch, Apple is said to be developing interface updates that allow macOS to switch between cursor and finger input. On-screen elements could expand when touched, making them easier to use. Standard keyboard and trackpad controls are expected to remain the primary mode of interaction.

The redesigned models are likely to run on Apple’s upcoming M6-series processors. These chips are expected to improve performance and efficiency and support AI-based tasks. The new machines could also feature a thinner, lighter chassis than current models.
Apple is expected to refresh the current MacBook Pro lineup with M5 chips before introducing the OLED touchscreen redesign in late 2026. The company has not officially confirmed the development.
A touchscreen MacBook Pro would blur the line between the Mac and the iPad. It would also signal Apple’s biggest change to the MacBook Pro since the transition to Apple silicon.
