Summary
Apple said its first touchscreen MacBook Pro goes on sale Nov. 6, bringing touch input to the Mac 16 years after Steve Jobs dismissed touchscreen laptops.
The new 14- and 16-inch models pair that shift with a PROLED XDR display, M5 Pro or M5 Max chips, up to 128GB of memory, 16TB of storage and a thinner, lighter design.
Touch support is built into the display panel itself, while Apple redesigned the hinge for stability and added video stabilization to smooth camera shake during touchscreen use on calls.
macOS converts touches into clicks so existing apps work immediately, including Adobe Lightroom, Blender, Notion, Canva, Zoom and Microsoft Office.
Priced from £2,899 to £14,549, the launch extends Apple's recent hardware push after releases including its folding smartphone, HomeView dashboard and budget MacBook Neo.
