JAKARTA Apple is rumored to be launching the MacBook Pro with a touchscreen next year. In addition to presenting this sophisticated capability, the Mac will reportedly remove camera bangs.

This technology was opposed by Apple executives in the past. Around 2010, Apple founder Steve Jobs stated that they would never give birth to a Mac with a touchscreen due to its poor ergonomics.

Not only Jobs, Apple's Senior Vice President, Craig Federighi, also stated the same thing in 2018. He stated that the Mac and iPad would remain two products with different functions.

After years of opposition, the executives seem to have changed their minds. According to a Bloomberg report, Apple is preparing to release the MacBook Pro with the fastest touchscreen by the end of 2026 or no later than early 2027.

This report is also in line with predictions made by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo in September 2025. Kuo suspects that Apple intends to launch this new technology after observing the behavior of iPad users.

This speculation is also supported by Apple's actions over the past few years. In 2021 and 2023, Apple filed patents that include touchscreen Mac technology. The patent has even been granted in September 2024.

In addition to touchscreens, other reports suggest design changes to screen bezels. It is possible that Apple will get rid of notchs or camera bangs by adopting a punch hole camera or new screen technology.
