Apple may be preparing for a major update to its MacBook Pro lineup. According to rumors, the upcoming model will undergo significant changes. The next-generation MacBook Pro may be equipped with an impressive OLED display, which will replace the notch with an even smaller element.
What’s new in the next Apple MacBook Pro?
A few months ago, the Cupertino giant began selling its MacBook Air 2025 with an M4 chipset. Meanwhile, work is reportedly already underway on a successor with a new and faster Apple M5 processor. The high-end MacBook Pro will likely get more powerful versions of this chip, which could be the Apple M5 Pro and M5 Max. But in addition to the new processor, the brand may even make the MacBook Pro lighter and thinner than its predecessor.
As a reminder, the current generation of MacBook Pros are equipped with mini-LED displays, which provide higher brightness and deeper blacks compared to conventional LCD panels. But the latest rumors suggest that the MacBook Pro will be equipped with a new OLED panel. So we can expect truer blacks, wider viewing angles, and better contrast. This may even help make MacBook Pro screens more energy efficient.
The Omdia report also adds that the notch in the next-generation MacBook Pro will also be updated: the large notch will be replaced with a new webcam hole. This means that we may see functionality similar to Dynamic Island in the new models. Keep in mind that this is still unconfirmed information, so treat this news with caution for now.
