has officially unveiled its latest 14 and 16 models, marking a significant hardware milestone. These laptops feature the new M5 Pro chip and introduce touch-sensitive PROLED XDR displays, the first time Apple has added touch to its lineup.
The PROLED XDR screens utilize Tandem OLED technology, reaching a peak brightness of 2,000 nits. While available in glossy and nano-texture finishes, YouTuber Dave2D noted the nano-texture option is prone to fingerprints during active multi-touch usage.
To support this hardware shift, Apple optimized for touch input with specific UI animation changes. This transition represents a major evolution for the MacBook Pro, blending high-end display performance with a newly interactive software experience.
