Apple’s first MacBook Pro with an OLED display and touchscreen is finally on the verge of launching. We’ve recently learned that Apple might finally pull back the covers this month or the next. But before that happens, we’re now coming across some new details of the laptop. According to a new leak, the OLED MacBook Pro will be significantly lighter than the usual MacBook Pro.
Apple is reportedly making the OLED MacBook Pro significantly lighter
This new piece of information comes from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in his latest Power On newsletter. He notes that Apple has “reengineered the machine’s interior, miniaturizing parts and rearranging components to make the computer much easier to carry.” This will reportedly make the MacBook Pro OLED “significantly lighter” as well as thinner.
Considering the track record of Gurman, this latest leak might be true. However, there are already concerns about potential battery compromises, affecting its performance. Meanwhile, other users fear that the connectivity department might see some sacrifices rather than battery life in pursuit of thinness. In simple terms, fewer ports on the MacBook Pro OLED. Well, all of these theories are just speculation, so don’t take any of them for certain.
Launch is around the corner
With this newly reported information, we now know that the OLED MacBook Pro will have touch-screen capabilities, a thinner design, and Dynamic Island in place of a notch. It’ll reportedly feature the M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. There could be 14-inch and 16-inch models. Gurman reiterated that Apple is testing the laptops with macOS 27.2, which is in beta currently. Apple is reportedly planning on launching the new MacBook in October or November.
With rising component prices, especially memory, the OLED MacBook Pro may not be cheap, and your wallet may not like it. They’ll sit above the existing MacBook Pro models. With the launch window fast approaching, we don’t have to wait long to know more details.
