Apple is preparing the first OLED MacBook Pro, and the hardware list is aggressive: OLED display, touchscreen support, Dynamic Island replacing the notch, Face ID, and a thinner chassis. The starting price is rumored around $3,000.
The twist is the chip. Despite this being the most significant MacBook Pro redesign in years, Apple is expected to pair it with the already-available M5 Pro and M5 Max, not a new silicon generation. That decision forces a real question about product identity: does Apple sell this as another MacBook Pro, or launch it under a new MacBook Ultra brand to justify the premium and separate it from the current lineup.
The full video is worth watching for the breakdown of what macOS touch optimization actually requires, whether MagSafe, HDMI, and the SD card slot survive the thinner design, and the analysis of how this reshapes the entire Mac product ladder. The chip situation alone changes how you should think about timing your next purchase.
