Apple CEO John Ternus introduced the company's first touchscreen MacBook Pro on Wednesday during its "Pro and tell" event in Los Angeles. Pricing for the new hardware starts at a $400 higher base price than previous models. [1][4][6]

The display uses tandem OLED technology that stacks multiple organic layers, delivering up to 2,000 nits peak HDR brightness and an advertised 10,000,000:1 contrast ratio. Apple says the screen covers both P3 and Adobe RGB color spaces, as well as 80 percent of the Rec.2020 gamut. The panel runs at 120Hz via ProMotion, includes a sub-millisecond display engine that adapts to pixel aging, and offers an optional nano-texture etched glass finish to reduce glare. [1]

The laptop caps a week of hardware updates that also included an M6 iMac and an entry-level M6 MacBook Pro. By incorporating tandem OLED into a portable Mac, Apple is pitching the high-contrast, color-calibrated touch display toward professional video editors, designers, and photographers. [1][6]
