Apple unveils first touchscreen MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR

Apple has introduced a new generation of MacBook Pro laptops, marking the company’s first foray into touchscreen technology. Available in 14-inch and 16-inch models, the devices feature the new PROLED XDR display, which utilizes a tandem OLED structure to achieve a 10,000,000:1 contrast ratio and a peak brightness of 2,000 nits.

The new lineup is powered by Apple M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, designed to enhance on-device AI performance, professional rendering, and high-end video editing. The hardware includes integrated touch sensors within the display panel to reduce latency, alongside support for ProMotion technology with up to 120Hz refresh rates.

In addition to the MacBook Pro updates, Apple has released a new iMac featuring the M6 chip, built on a 2-nanometer process. This all-in-one computer offers improved performance for AI tasks and higher memory bandwidth. Other recent updates include a new iPad mini with an 8.5-inch OLED display and the A20 Pro chip.
