Apple is planning not one, but two MacBook Pro upgrades this year, and the second one will be a big one. <\/p>\n

This is according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, who claims that Apple’s new generation MacBooks and Mac desktop computers are “ready to go.”<\/p>\n

We’ll reportedly see new MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, and Mac Studio computers in the “first half of the year,” wrote Gurman, adding that Apple also working on a new display. <\/p>\n

We’ve previously written about these, including the possibility of Apple launching a 16-inch MacBook Pro with an M5 Pro\/Max chip as soon as Jan. 28. <\/p>\n

Gurman, however, says that Apple might upgrade its MacBook Pro devices a second time this year, “toward the end of 2026.” Then, we could get a more significant revamp of the MacBook Pro, which could get the new M6 Pro\/Max chip, an OLED display, touch support, and a hole-punch style of camera (instead of the current notch) with something akin to the iPhone’s Dynamic Island around it. <\/p>\n

OLED is a big deal as it brings better contrast, improved color accuracy, and deeper blacks, compared to the LED displays that the MacBook Pro currently has. <\/p>\n

But the really big news is touch support, which would be a first for Apple. The company has kept its touch devices (iPad) and laptops (MacBook) separate so far, with Steve Jobs once famously claiming that touch screens don’t belong on laptops. <\/p>\n

We’ve heard bits and pieces of these reports before, but the timeline is interesting. Apple rarely updates its MacBook Pro computers twice in a year, though it did that once…<\/p>\n
