Apple will reportedly debut its first touchscreen MacBook in three weeks
Apple is reportedly planning an event in late October to unveil new MacBook Pros featuring touchscreen OLED displays and updated iPad Mini models. This follows a separate event focused on smart home products scheduled for mid-October.
Why it matters
The introduction of touchscreens to MacBooks would mark a significant shift in Apple's hardware design philosophy.
Apple is set to introduce a new MacBook Pro with a touchscreen and an updated iPad Mini “on or around” October 27th, Bloomberg reports. If true, that would put the event just two weeks after the October 13th event Apple announced today, which is rumored to focus on smart home products.
Bloomberg says that the late October event will include an “online video presentation” and an “in-person component for the press,” which it reports is similar to what Apple is planning for the October 13th event.
