Gurman reports that the touchscreen laptops are internally known as K114 and K116, and will run on M6 chips; Apple just introduced the M5 generation of its silicon for this year's iteration of the MacBook Pro and iPad Pro.

Apple just announced 14-inch MacBook Pro updates that add a new generation M5 processor, faster storage, and a promise of 24-hour battery life, but Bloomberg ’s Mark Gurman now reports next year’s refresh will be more thorough.

Apple is finally making a touch-screen MacBook Pro. According to Bloomberg, the company is developing a high-end MacBook Pro with a slimmer, lighter body, OLED display, and a hole-punch camera cutout and dropping the infamous notch.

Apple is working on its first MacBook Pro with a touch-screen display, after years of arguing the technology should be saved for tablets, according to a new report. The revamped MacBooks – code-named K114 and K116 – are expected to launch late next year or early in 2027, people with knowledge of the matter told Bloomberg.

While the M5 MacBook Pro release on Wednesday is fresh in everyone’s mind, this is technology we’re talking about, and it’s always moving forward. Hence, Thursday’s report provides details about the M6 MacBook Pro that’s expected to be released in late 2026 or early 2027.

According to Bloomberg, Apple will ditch the notch on its next MacBook Pro. I am glad that the idea never inspired a design trend in the laptop segment.

The 2025 MacBook Air answers a question that has been plaguing laptop shoppers for years: how do you achieve a machine that is powerful enough to do actual work, thin enough to take everywhere with you and runs cool enough that sitting on your lap won’t make you feel as though you are holding a space heater?
