MacBook Pro

Reports claim Apple is preparing a redesigned MacBook Pro that would feature an OLED display and a return of touchscreen functionality. If accurate, it would mark a significant shift for a laptop line that has long resisted touch input while moving away from LCD panels. Details on timing, pricing, and which models would be affected remain unconfirmed.

A developer is demonstrating Xiaomi's MiMo V2.6 Qwen 9B distill model running locally on a 16GB MacBook Pro, the third installment in a tutorial series launched this month. The series covers AI, programming and agents, with an emphasis on inclusive, community-oriented learning. Interest centres on whether mid-range laptops without high-end GPUs can now run capable open-weight language models.

Apple's MacBook Pro lineup is reportedly approaching a redesign featuring OLED displays, with the current M5 Pro model seeing price cuts of $600. The discount suggests retailers are clearing stock ahead of the redesigned machines, which are expected to arrive in 2026.
