Apple's First Touch MacBook: OLED & Dynamic Island
27 Jun
Summary
- First MacBook with touch screen and OLED panel.
- Will feature iPhone-like Dynamic Island interface.
- Expected to launch in early 2027 with M5 Pro/Max chips.
Apple's anticipated touchscreen MacBook is slated for release in early 2027, bringing several firsts to the MacBook lineup. This new model will feature an OLED display and adopt an iPhone-style Dynamic Island interface, features previously unseen on MacBooks.
The laptop is expected to be powered by Apple's M5 Pro and M5 Max silicon. Intriguingly, future iterations will reportedly skip the M6 chip generation altogether, leaping directly to the M7 chip when it becomes available, potentially in 2027 or early 2028. This suggests a shift in Apple's chip strategy.
Available in 14- and 16-inch sizes, the redesigned MacBook will also boast touch capabilities. While these features are new to Apple's laptops, they have been common in Windows PCs for years. Pricing is expected to be premium, possibly around $4,000, reflecting the new technology and recent price increases on Apple products.
