Apple's entry-level MacBook Pro could get a redesign by 2027
According to Bloomberg, Apple is working on a redesigned entry-level MacBook Pro that could launch in the first half of 2027. The company is also testing four new iPad Pros set for spring release with internal improvements.
Apple is developing a "revamped" version of its entry-level MacBook Pro that could launch as early as the first half of 2027, Bloomberg reports. The new model will retain a 14-inch screen but its design will align with Apple's planned touchscreen MacBooks, which are expected to arrive between the end of this year and early next year. Those touchscreen laptops will feature a Dynamic Island-like pill at the top of the screen.
The base MacBook Pro was last updated in October with the M5 chip. Apple is working on an M6 processor, and Bloomberg says the company "finished work months ago" on a different base MacBook Pro upgrade that keeps the current design and is scheduled for release this year. In 2027, Apple will quickly move to the M7 line, including new Pro and Max chips.
As for the iPad Pros, Bloomberg says they will retain 11-inch and 13-inch screens. Apple last updated the iPad Pro line last October with the M5 chip. The upcoming spring models will focus on "internal improvements."
