We may not see an OLED MacBook Pro until 2026, but I want one with a cellular option in 2025

MacBook Pro

As noted by 9to5Mac, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo now says we won’t see a MacBook Pro with an OLED display until 2026. 

He had previously predicted that one would arrive next year. However, Kuo has been predicting this since 2019.

MacBook Pros with OLED displays have been said to be coming soon for over three years. Samsung was purportedly talking with Apple about supplying OLED displays a Mac laptop in May 2019, according to the Korean site The Elec as noted and translated by MacRumors. That same year Kuo forecast a 16-inch (perhaps 17-inch) Mac laptop with an OLED display.

I definitely want an OLED MacBook Pro. But what I want even more is one with a cellular option. This would be a major step for Apple as it’s yet to introduce any sort of cellular capability for its Mac laptop line. Various iPad models have various cellar options, so why not Mac laptops with built-in 5G?

Rumors say that we may finally see an Apple-built modem next year. If so, I certainly hope to see ‘em offered with the 2025 MacBook Pro updates.
