Apple will hold its “Pro and tell” event in Los Angeles on 28 October 2026, with attention turning to reports of a MacBook Pro featuring an OLED touchscreen.
The event date is confirmed, but the expected products remain unannounced. Apple has not officially revealed the specifications of a touchscreen OLED MacBook Pro.
Malaysia time: 1am on 29 October
The media experience is scheduled for 10am Pacific Time on Wednesday, 28 October. That converts to 1am on Thursday, 29 October in Malaysia, so local readers should note the date change.
Reuters reported Apple’s confirmation of the Los Angeles event, while Apple marketing chief Greg Joswiak teased the upcoming announcements on social media. Coverage points to a hands-on media experience; a traditional public livestream has not been confirmed.
An OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro is the big rumour
According to Bloomberg reporting summarised by MacRumors, Apple could introduce its first MacBook Pro with an OLED touchscreen. If that happens, it would add direct screen interaction to the laptop’s familiar keyboard-and-trackpad controls.
For now, the screen technology, touch support and exact model details are still pre-launch reports. They should not be treated as a specification sheet for a product Apple has already released.
M6 Macs and an OLED iPad mini are also tipped
Other devices mentioned in the reports include an entry-level MacBook Pro with an M6 chip, an M6 iMac and an iPad mini with an OLED display. The rumoured touchscreen MacBook Pro and the entry-level M6 notebook are separate product reports; it is too early to assume every new MacBook Pro will use the same screen.
