It has been years (since then, at least 2021) that rumors have been circulating about an important update of the MacBook Pro screen: the transition to OLED technology. Some PC manufacturers already use this type of screen to offer better image quality, as well as better energy efficiency, on their products. And it is also the technology that Apple uses for iPhone screens.
According to new rumors, the MacBook Pro with OLED screen that we have been talking about for years could finally be launched in 2026. In its latest newsletter, Mark Gurman, journalist at Bloomberg, indicates that the MacBook Pro OLED should be launched at the end of 2026 or early 2027 and should use a M6 chip. Note that the journalist, who is one of the most reliable sources concerning future Apple products, corroborates from previous rumors which also mentioned an outing in 2026 of the MacBook Pro OLED. Otherwise, in a recent article, MacRumors (which cites a Korean media) said that Samsung should produce all of the OLED panels for Apple laptops.
A way to boost sales
As usual, this information is to be considered with caution, since it does not come from an official source. But, in any case, the release of a MacBook Pro with OLED screen could be a way, for Apple, to boost its sales. Indeed, if the recent MacBooks are very good products, they also have significant longevity.
Therefore, updating processors, on each generation, does not necessarily encourage customers to buy a more recent model. On the other hand, Apple could encourage more people to replace their MacBook Pro with a new model if it offers new screen technology.
