[ Gearbest Technology News]According to multiple rumors, Apple will overhaul the MacBook Pro in 2026, five years after the current popular version. Gearbestlearned from foreign media that this major upgrade will include five core changes:
OLED display
Following the first use of OLED technology in the iPad Pro in 2024, the MacBook Pro series will usher in the first application of this technology in 2026. According to TheElec, Apple will use the same “Two-Stack Tandem OLED” technology as the iPad Pro to achieve higher brightness and longer life by superimposing RGB layers. Research agency Omdia added that the new design may eliminate the notch screen and use a “rounded corners + punch-hole” solution, but it is not clear whether it will be an iPhone smart island design.
Ultra-thin body
Bloomberg revealed that the new MacBook Pro will adopt a slimmer design. Although the specific details have not been made public, screen technical problems have previously caused the design to be postponed from 2025 to 2026.
Touch screen support
Analyst Mingzui Kuo predicts that Apple will launch a touch-screen Mac as early as 2026. There is multiple evidence that this feature will become an important feature of the 2026 MacBook Pro.
cellular network
Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman pointed out that Apple is developing a built-in modem and plans to launch the first Mac to support cellular networks in 2026 as part of its independent chip research and development strategy.
M6 chip
The new notebook will be equipped with M6 series chips for the first time, which is expected to use TSMC’s 2nm process technology (synchronized with the iPhone’s A20 chip). The three versions of M6/M6 Pro/M6 Max will be compatible with 14-inch and 16-inch models, and their performance and energy efficiency will be significantly improved.
