Apple unveils its first touchscreen MacBook on October 28
Apple is announcing an event on October 28th. The company is expected to unveil its first touchscreen MacBook and more new products.
Apple announced a new event on Monday for October 28th. The tech giant is expected to present its first MacBook with touchscreen there. In addition, several new devices are planned, including a renewed iMac and iPad mini.
The event takes place in Los Angeles and is called Pro and tell, a reference to the MacBook Pro.
According to Bloomberg, the most important announcement will be a new touchscreen MacBook Pro. In doing so, Apple is taking a striking step. So far, the company has maintained a clear distinction between MacBooks, which are operated with a keyboard and trackpad, and iPads with touch screens.
A cheaper entry-level model of the MacBook Pro is also expected, equipped with the new M6 chip. It must perform better than its predecessor.
In addition to the MacBook Pro, Apple is working on a revamped iMac and a new iPad mini. The latter is expected to get an OLED screen, which offers deeper blacks and better contrast than traditional LCD screens.
The announcements follow a busy period for Apple. The company recently presented the HomeView, the HomePod mini 2 and a revamped Apple TV.
Friday also sees the launch of the iPhone Duo, Apple's first foldable iPhone. As a result, the company is expanding its range considerably in a short time.
