After introducing the MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display on October 28, Apple will eliminate the non-touch premium MacBook Pro models from its lineup when it introduces the second-generation touch models in 2027. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says in his latest Power On newsletter.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro will move to M7 and get the new thinner, lighter design, but won’t add the touchscreen features, he adds.
Customers can pre-order the new MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display on apple.com/store and in the Apple Store app in 30 countries and regions, including the U.S. It will begin arriving to customers, and in Apple Store locations and Apple Authorized Resellers, starting Friday, November 6.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display featuring M5 Pro starts at US$2,899 and $2,749 with education savings. The 16-inch MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display featuring M5 Pro starts at $3,399 and $3,199with education savings.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display featuring M5 Max starts at $4,499 and $4,199 with education savings; and the 16-inch MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display featuring M5 Max starts at $4,799 and $4,499 with education savings.
