Update: Apple has announced new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with a touch-enabled PROLED XDR Display .
In a post on X today , Apple CEO John Ternus shared a short video that shows an Apple logo being projected onto a dark wall against a nighttime city skyline. This teaser comes just a few hours before Apple is expected to announce new MacBook models with touch-enabled OLED displays, so it is very likely in reference to that.
Apple invited selected tech reporters and content creators to a "Pro and tell" experience in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. Pacific Time today . There, guests will likely receive hands-on time with the touchscreen MacBook models, along with the new iPad mini , iMac , and 14-inch MacBook Pro models that Apple already announced earlier this week.
