But those new machines won\u2019t look any different from their predecessors. They\u2019ll have new M5 Pro\/M5 Max chips, but the designs will be the same old, same old.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re hoping for a new look in 2026, however, there\u2019s reason to be hopeful. Apple is expected to follow the imminent launch with something much more exciting: a redesigned MacBook Pro with an M6 chip and its first OLED screen. (Possibly with a touchscreen, although some rumors suggest touch input will only be supported on the M6 Pro and Max models.) And the latest report indicates that we can expect that machine by the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>In a supply-chain report this week based on anonymous industry sources, the Korean-language site The Elec (via 9to5Mac) claims that Samsung Display, which will be making the OLED panels for the redesigned MacBook, is set to begin mass production in May: \u201cSamsung Display has decided to begin mass-production glass substrates for its A6 [OLED production] line starting in May and has shared the schedule with its partners,\u201d the site writes, via Google Translate.<\/p>\n<p>The site further reports that the OLED MacBook Pro is \u201cscheduled to be released in the fourth quarter of this year\u201d and will feature both 14- and 16-inch models. While the OLED panels are well in hand, The Elec notes that some other components are still being developed&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.macworld.com\/article\/3051933\/redesigned-oled-macbook-pro-on-track-to-arrive-this-year-report-claims.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Redesigned OLED MacBook Pro on track to arrive this year, report claims https:\/\/www.macworld.com\/article\/3051933\/redesigned-oled-macbook-pro-on-track-to-arrive-this-year-report-claims.html Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":209916,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.macworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Macbook-Pro-M5_5372.jpeg?quality=50&strip=all&w=1024","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[51],"class_list":["post-209915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-macintosh","tag-macbook-pro"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209915"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=209915"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209915\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":209917,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209915\/revisions\/209917"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/209916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=209915"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=209915"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=209915"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
