Apple has announced its latest MacBook Pro, the MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display, bringing a touchscreen to the Mac for the first time in its history.
Apple fans have clamored for touch features to be added to the Mac for years, driven in no small part by the success of such devices on the Windows side, as well as the success of the iPad. Both have illustrated the benefits of being able to interact with a computing device through touch. In fact, it often feels so natural that many iPad users find themselves instinctively reaching for the screen of their MacBooks.
Apple has finally delivered with its MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display. The laptop is available in both 14- and 16-inch models and is powered by the M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. Machines can support up to 128GB of RAM and up to 16TB of storage. As the name suggests, both come with the PROLED XDR display, which Apple calls the "world's best laptop display."
“The new MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display is a monumental step forward for the Mac,” said Johny Srouji, Apple’s chief hardware officer. “PROLED XDR is the world’s best laptop display. It pairs state-of-the-art tandem OLED technology with advanced algorithms in our display engine to deliver the kind of visual fidelity pros have been dreaming of. And with the magic of Touch coming to MacBook Pro, combined with the game-changing performance of M5 Pro and M5 Max, we’ve created a whole new way for pros to interact with their content, taking their workflows to a completely new level. The new MacBook Pro is the result of the deep integration between Apple silicon, hardware, and software, and there’s simply nothing else like it.” |
