Apple CEO Tim Cook <\/strong>took to X on February 26, teasing a major product launch, and shared a short video of hands interacting with what appears to be an Apple device. This particular post hasn’t been greeted positively. Before Cook\u2019s post, Bloomberg reported that the company is developing a touch-screen MacBook Pro with an OLED display, a Dynamic Island cutout, and a redesigned macOS interface optimized for touch. The response was pretty abrupt. Developer and tech creator Dorian Develops<\/strong> clearly disapproved of the idea on X, saying no one would want a device like that.<\/p>\n

If we go back in time, the company itself abandoned the Touch Bar because it wasn\u2019t well-received, and it also dismissed vertical touchscreens at one point.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Tim Cook\u2019s post said: <\/p>\n

\u201cA big week ahead. It all starts Monday morning! #AppleLaunch\u201d<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Dorian Develops said: <\/p>\n

\u201cNobody wants a touchscreen MacBook.\u201d<\/p>\n

What is Apple likely to launch this week?<\/h2>\n

The company has not confirmed which products will be part of this week’s announcements. Based on earlier reports, the most-anticipated lineup likely includes the iPhone 17e, refreshed iPad Air models, and updated MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models with M5-series chips.<\/p>\n

The touch-screen MacBook Pro is a separate matter entirely. Reports suggest that the launch of that specific product will occur at a later time rather than suddenly. However, that distinction hasn\u2019t stopped the two stories from bleeding into each other online. Cook’s teaser video arrived a few days after the touchscreen report, likely explaining why the online reaction has been so loud.<\/p>\n

Whether this week’s event has anything to do with a touchscreen Mac is yet to be…<\/p>\n
