Briefings

Apple is expected to debut a revamped MacBook Pro with a touchscreen display at an event in Los Angeles, marking the first touchscreen on a Mac since the Touch Bar. This follows a busy week where the company announced an iPad Mini with an upgraded OLED display and M6 chip upgrades for the MacBook Pro and iMac. The MacBook Pro has remained largely unchanged for several years without a proper touchscreen, making this potential update a significant shift in the product line.
