"According to people familiar with the matter, Apple will announce 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros known internally as K114 and K116. If these claims hold up, these MacBook Pros will finally break the long-standing Apple bias against touchscreen laptops, which goes back to Steve Jobs, who famously proclaimed that "touch surfaces don't want to be vertical"."
"According to the new report, the touchscreen MacBook Pro will feature distinct profiles optimized for touch or point-and-click input. When the touch profile is enabled, macOS will bring additional menus and context-relevant actions surrounding the user's touch points on the screen."
"In addition, both upcoming MacBook Pros will also gain OLED displays and Dynamic Island. OLED MacBooks have been rumored for a few years now but the Dynamic Island bit is new. According to the report, the Dynamic Island on the upcoming MacBook Pros will be housed in the top center of the display and will be smaller than the one on the current crop of iPhones, featuring a punch-hole cutout shape."
Apple plans to introduce touchscreen MacBook Pro models (K114 and K116) in late 2026, ending decades of resistance to touchscreen laptops that originated from Steve Jobs' belief that vertical touch surfaces are impractical. The new MacBook Pros will feature distinct profiles optimized for touch or point-and-click input, with macOS displaying additional menus and context-relevant actions around touch points. Both models will include OLED displays and Dynamic Island—a smaller punch-hole cutout design positioned at the top center of the display, similar to iPhone implementations. These updates represent significant design changes for Apple's premium laptop line.
