Apple is rumored to be planning one of the biggest updates to its MacBook Pro lineup in over a decade. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports in today’s edition of his «Power On» newsletter that the company is preparing to launch a redesigned MacBook Pro with OLED displays in late 2026 or early 2027. This would be the first time Apple has used OLED in its laptops, replacing the Mini-LED technology currently found in its high-end models.
OLED screens bring deeper blacks, higher contrast, more vibrant colors, and potentially better battery life. Samsung Display is expected to supply the panels, thanks to its next-generation manufacturing process that can produce OLED at the scale and quality Apple requires.
