Apple plans to introduce new OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro models on October 27 or 28, and the machines could launch on Friday, November 6. Bloomberg” said Mark Gurman during his latest podcast.
Apple stores apparently have a “Grand Reset” planned for the evening of Thursday, November 5, and through Friday, November 6, which Gurman says may be in the works for the new Macs. The store reset will follow its late October debut, with Apple planning a creator-focused gathering in Los Angeles to showcase the new products.
In addition to the OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro, Apple is reportedly launching the OLED iPad mini, the iMac M6 and the entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro M6. Gurman did not specify whether there would be a classic Apple event, but suggested that Apple would “do something” and “have these videos” at “the very least.”
Gurman previously said that Apple might name the new OLED Macs the “MacBook Ultra,” but he more recently walked back that point and suggested they would be part of the MacBook Pro line. He also said that the foldable iPhone could be the iPhone Ultra and that Apple would launch the AirPods Ultra, but so far Apple has not adopted the Ultra name.
The OLED MacBook Pro models could be sold as a premium option alongside current mini-LED models, but new chips are not expected. Apple will reportedly use the same M5 Pro and M5 Max chips found in existing MacBook Pro models.
If the MacBook Pro models launch on November 6, Apple will have several weeks of product launches. The iPhone Duo will be released on October 23, while the HomePod mini 2 will launch on October 30. The fourth-generation HomeView and Apple TV 4K will be released on November 13.
