Rian Johnson's Chromagraph Camera app brings his cinematic style to your iPhone photos
Chromagraph Camera gives iPhone photos the Hollywood treatment for $12.99, but its cinematic look won't suit every photographer's taste.Chromagraph brings Hollywood color processing to iPhoneRian Johnson launched Chromagraph Camera, an iPhone photography app that uses image processing developed for his films. The "Knives Out" and "The Last Jedi" director worked with cinematographer Steve Yedlin and programmer Eric Cameron to bring Chromagraph Camera to the App Store.So I recently badgered my cinematographer @steveyedlin into making my ideal iPhone still camera app. It shoots RAW, bypasses the iPhone's look processing and instead uses the same image processing we use on our movies. https://t.co/makZzhFd2Q— Rian Johnson (@rianjohnson) October 28, 2026 Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

How macOS is changing on touchscreens beyond Sidecar, but only a bit
Apple didn't just put a touchscreen on the MacBook Pro, it made some minor macOS changes to buttons and menus to accommodate your fingers. Here's where they are so far, and what apps will get them first.PROLED display on MacBook ProThe company introduced the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display at its "Pro and tell" event in Los Angeles on Wednesday, October 28. The new models start at $2,899 and $3,399, respectively, with preorders open now and availability beginning November 6.The laptops run macOS 27 and retain the traditional keyboard and trackpad. Apple has added touchscreen support without replacing the desktop interface that Mac users already know.One of the clearest changes involves the red, yellow and green buttons at the top-left corner of Mac windows. In its hands-on report, The Verge found that the buttons grow larger when touched, making them easier to select with a finger. A short video posted by Neil Cybart shows the same behavior, although the buttons appear to respond with a slight delay. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Here's Everything Apple Announced This Week | MacRumors
Here's Everything Apple Announced This Week
It's been a busy October for Apple, and just this week, we got a new OLED iPad mini, an ‌OLED‌ MacBook Pro with a touch display, a new M6 ‌MacBook Pro‌, and an M6 iMac. Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos. If you missed the news over the last three days, we've rounded up all our coverage in one spot, so it's easy to take a look back. The ‌MacBook Pro‌ got the biggest update, and it's now the first Mac with an ‌OLED‌ display and touch support. It's a little bit thinner and lighter than the mini-LED models, which are also still on sale, but it unfortunately uses the M5 Pro and M5 Max chips Apple introduced earlier this year. It also got a Dynamic Island, a glowing Apple logo, and a new speaker setup, but prices went up too. The ‌OLED‌ models have a $400 premium over comparable mini-LED models. Apple's other big update was the ‌iPad mini‌, which also has an ‌OLED‌ display. It's the second iPad to get ‌OLED‌ after the iPad Pro, and it's the first ‌iPad‌ with an official water and dust resistance rating. It uses a new acoustic display setup, helping it earn an IP67 rating, so it'll hold up to brief submersion and splashing. The base 14-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ and the ‌iMac‌ got M6 chips, but not much else.

Here's a Real-World Look at the New MacBook Pro's Glowing Apple Logo
Surprise! The new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with OLED displays have a glowing Apple logo, a beloved feature that was phased out a decade ago. In a hands-on video shared on his YouTube channel UrAvgConsumer, Judner Aura showed off the glowing Apple logo and revealed that its brightness is tied to the MacBook Pro's display brightness. If you turn up the display brightness, the logo gets brighter, and vice versa. The glowing logo worked the same way on older MacBooks. Skip ahead to the one-minute mark of the video to see the glowing Apple logo. Apple never publicly commented on why it removed the glowing logo, but many customers have long wanted it back, and the company has evidently listened. The new MacBook Pro models are available to pre-order now and launch Friday, November 6.Related Roundup: MacBook ProBuyer's Guide: MacBook Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: MacBook ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

How Accurate Were Rumors About Apple's OLED Touchscreen MacBook Pro? | MacRumors
How Accurate Were Rumors About Apple's OLED Touchscreen MacBook Pro?
Rumors about Apple's work on a touchscreen OLED MacBook Pro started in 2023, when Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said there would be a MacBook Pro with an ‌OLED‌ display and a touchscreen, but ‌OLED‌ rumors date back even further. We heard a lot about the new Mac over the last few years, and we thought we'd take a look back to see what was right and what was wrong. OLED 2016 - In 2016, ETNews said Apple was considering ‌OLED‌ displays for future MacBooks. 2019 - The Elec said Apple was in talks with Samsung about ‌OLED‌ displays for a future 16-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌. 2021 - The Elec said a future MacBook would use an ‌OLED‌ display with a two-stack tandem structure, which is what Apple announced today. 2023 - ETNews claimed Apple was sourcing OLED panels in 14-inch and 16-inch sizes for the ‌MacBook Pro‌, which turned out to be accurate. 2023 - Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said Apple would release the first MacBook with an OLED display by the end of 2024 at the earliest, which was incorrect. Touch 2023 - Bloomberg's ‌Mark Gurman‌ was the first to report on a touch display. In January 2023, he said Apple was working on an ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ with a touchscreen. 2025 - Kuo said in September 2025 that the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ would have touch sensors integrated into the display panel's top layer, which was correct. No Notch/Dynamic Island 2024 - Omdia said in December 2024 that Apple would remove the notch from the ‌MacBook Pro‌ "in a few years," replacing it with a hole-punch camera. The hole-punch aspect wasn't quite correct. 2025 - In August 2025, Omdia said an ‌OLED‌ MacBook coming in 2026 would have an iPhone-like Dynamic Island cutout instead of a notch. 2025 - In October 2025, Gurman said the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ would have a "so-called hole-punch design" with a "display area around the sensor" similar to the ‌Dynamic Island‌. 2026 - In February 2026, Gurman described the ‌Dynamic Island‌ as interactive and able to contextually expand based on the app or Mac feature in use. Hinge 2025 - Gurman was the first to mention a reinforced hinge that would keep the display from moving when touched. Design 2024 - In November 2024, Gurman said the ‌MacBook Pro‌ would have a thinner design, which was accurate. 2026 - In October 2026, Gurman said he didn't expect the ‌MacBook Pro‌ would be "significantly thinner," tempering expectations. 2026 - In October 2026, he said the ‌MacBook Pro‌ models would be "significantly lighter." Chips 2025 - In October 2025, Gurman predicted the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ models would use M6-series chips, and in November, he specified M6 Pro and M6 Max chips. 2026 - In June 2026, Gurman said there would be no M6 Pro or M6 Max chips, and the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ would instead use M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. 2026 - In September 2026, Omdia said the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ would have an M5 Ultra chip option, which was wrong. Pricing 2026 - In March 2026, Gurman said the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ models would be more expensive and would be above the mini-LED ‌MacBook Pro‌ models, which was correct. 2026 - Just a day before the ‌MacBook Pro‌ models were announced, Gurman accurately predicted the $2,899 and $3,399 pricing. Naming March 2026 - Gurman suggested Apple was working on a "MacBook Ultra," but he did hedge and say Apple might not use the Ultra naming. April 2026 - Macworld claimed Apple would release a ‌MacBook Ultra‌ in late 2026 or early 2027. October 2026 - MacRumors' Joe Rossignol speculated that Apple could call the new MacBook the "MacBook Studio," but that didn't happen. Launch Timing 2021 - In March 2021, DigiTimes said Apple would release ‌MacBook Pro‌ models with an ‌OLED‌ display in 2022, which was not accurate. 2021 - In November 2021, The Elec said an ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ would launch in 2025, but also suggested the launch could be postponed. 2023 - When Gurman first reported on the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌, he said it would launch in 2025. 2023 - In March 2023, display analyst Ross Young accurately predicted Apple would launch an OLED MacBook Pro in 2026, but he also incorrectly claimed an ‌OLED‌ MacBook Air would come first in 2024. 2024 - In November 2024, Gurman updated launch timing to "probably" 2026. 2025 - In August 2025, Dealsite.co.kr said Apple would launch a ‌MacBook Pro‌ with ‌OLED‌ in late 2026, which was accurate. 2025 - In September 2025, The Elec also said the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ would launch in the fourth quarter of 2026. 2025 - In October 2025, Gurman updated his launch timing prediction to late 2026 or early 2027. 2026 - In February 2026, Gurman said the ‌MacBook Pro‌ would launch in 2026, though in April he went back to 2026 to 2027 and said the touchscreen ‌MacBook Pro‌ launch timing could slip to the end of his predicted window because of the chip shortage. By September, he updated timing to "later this year," and he mentioned a November 6 launch on October 15. Not Rumored Some features in the new ‌MacBook Pro‌ were never rumored and came as a surprise. Illuminated Apple logo Up to 16TB storage Revamped speakers PROLED XDR naming Wrap Up Most of the rumors about Apple's ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ were right, and Gurman scored a win being the first to suggest it would also have a touchscreen. Launch timing was harder to pin down, partly because Apple's plans shifted over the years, and more recently, because of the ongoing RAM shortages.Related Roundup: MacBook ProTag: OLEDBuyer's Guide: MacBook Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: MacBook ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

iPhone Duo: Turn the Hinge Into an App Launcher | MacRumors
iPhone Duo: Turn the Hinge Into an App Launcher
If you're eager to change your screen time habits – like staying off Instagram or reading more books – the iPhone Duo may offer a solution. It's the first iPhone with two screens, and there's a trick that you can use to make it consistently open a specific app whenever you unfold it and look at the bigger display. In the Shortcuts app, there's a new iPhone Duo trigger called "Opened or Closed" that runs an automated action when the device is unfolded or folded. One of the best uses for it, I've found, is launching a specific app the moment you open your Duo – so that unfolding the phone takes you straight into the app experience you're expecting, and nothing else distracts. I've always been keen to on my iPad, so in this example, I'll show you how to make the iPhone Duo launch the Kindle app whenever you unfold the device. It makes flipping the phone open feel like opening a book to where you left off. But you can substitute any app you like. The following steps show you how it's done. Open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone Duo. On the "All Shortcuts" screen, tap the plus (+) button in the bottom-right corner. On the "What do you want your shortcut to do?" screen, tap Edit in the top-right corner. Tap the Search field at the bottom of the editor, type "Automation," then under the "Display" section, tap Opened or Closed ("When my iPhone is opened"). Select Opened as the trigger in the editor screen, then search for the Open App action. Tap the App placeholder in the "Open App" action, then choose the app you want to launch. In this example, we'll choose Kindle. Now leave the Shortcuts app – the automation saves automatically and is active right away. You can rename the shortcut if you like, but it's not required. That's all there is to it. Now when you open your iPhone Duo, your chosen app will launch automatically. If you'd rather run an action when you close your Duo, simply choose Closed as the trigger instead, or select Opened or Closed to run it both ways. The Shortcuts app also allows you to add conditions to an automation, like a time or a focus mode, ensuring that it only triggers when your chosen conditions are met. This new automation opens up many possibilities. Let us know in the comments below what you come up with.Related Roundup: iPhone DuoBuyer's Guide: iPhone Duo (Buy Now)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

OLED MacBook Pro vs. Mini-LED MacBook Pro: Size and Weight Compared | MacRumors
OLED MacBook Pro vs. Mini-LED MacBook Pro: Size and Weight Compared
The OLED MacBook Pro models look a lot like the prior mini-LED MacBook Pros, but Apple did make some design updates. The new machines are slightly thinner and lighter, and the 16-inch model has a larger display thanks to slimmer bezels. The 16-inch ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ lists a 16.3-inch display, up from 16.2 inches. The 14-inch ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ still has the same 14.2-inch display. Height 14-inch ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 0.59 inches 14-inch mini-LED ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 0.61 inches 16-inch ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 0.63 inches 16-inch mini-LED ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 0.66 inches Weight 14-inch ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 3 pounds for Pro, 3.1 pounds for Max 14-inch mini-LED ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 3.5 pounds for Pro, 3.6 pounds for Max 16-inch ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 4 pounds for Pro, 4.1 pounds for Max 16-inch mini-LED ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 4.6 pounds for Pro, 4.7 pounds for Max Dimensions 14-inch ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 12.24 inches wide, 8.52 inches deep 14-inch mini-LED ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 12.31 inches wide, 8.71 inches deep 16-inch ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 14 inches wide, 9.62 inches deep 16-inch mini-LED ‌MacBook Pro‌ - 14.01 inches wide, 9.77 inches deep Compared to the mini-LED models, the ‌OLED‌ models are about half a pound lighter and at least 0.02 inches thinner (about half a millimeter). ‌OLED‌ displays don't need a backlight, which saves weight. The touch sensor is built into the display panel and not layered on top, so it doesn't add bulk. Apple priced the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ models at $400 more than comparable mini-LED models, so the 14-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ starts at $2,899 and the 16-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ starts at $3,399.Related Roundup: MacBook ProTags: Mini-LED, OLEDBuyer's Guide: MacBook Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: MacBook ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Adding Touch Didn't Cost the MacBook Pro Any Battery Life
The PROLED MacBook Pro models continue to offer up to 24 hours of battery life despite the switch to a new OLED display and touch capabilities. Both the PROLED and the mini-LED 14-inch and 16-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ models offer the same maximum battery life estimates. 16-inch, M5 Max - Up to 22 hours streaming video, up to 16 hours web 16-inch, M5 Pro - Up to 24 hours streaming video, up to 17 hours web 14-inch, M5 Max - Up to 20 hours streaming video, up to 13 hours web 14-inch, M5 Pro - Up to 22 hours streaming video, up to 14 hours web The mini-LED and PROLED models have the same M5 Pro and M5 Max chips inside, so the display is the main difference between them. The ‌OLED‌ display's efficiency likely offsets the power used by the touch integration. The 14-inch PROLED and mini-LED models have a 72.4-watt-hour battery, while the 16-inch models have a 100-watt-hour battery. Pricing on the 14-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ starts at $2,899, while the 16-inch model starts at $3,399.

Apple Releases Redesigned Mac Chargers and 'World Travel Adapter Kit'
Apple today began selling updated versions of its 70W Power Adapter, 140W Power Adapter, and Power Adapter Extension Cable, all with a new "AC Connector 2." The updated power adapters and extension cable are available on Apple's online store in the U.S. and many other countries around the world. Apple also released an updated version of its World Travel Adapter Kit that had disappeared from its online store in 2025, with U.S. pricing set at $39. Each of the international AC plugs included in the box now have the AC Connector 2 too. Apple's power adapters have a removable plug, and the World Travel Adapter Kit contains various plug types for international travel:The kit includes five interchangeable AC plugs: Type A: North America, Japan Type C: Continental Europe, Brazil Type D: India Type G: United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Singapore Type I: Australia, New ZealandIn a new support document, Apple said its updated power adapters, extension cable, and plugs use the AC Connector 2 with a pill-shaped design to comply with "updated regulations." Apple's previous "AC Connector 1" has a notched design. Apple began rolling out the AC Connector 2 in a few countries earlier this year, leading to some customers complaining about compatibility issues with Apple's older extension cables and World Travel Adapter Kit. Apple has now solved that problem by releasing these updated versions of the accessories with the AC Connector 2.Related Roundup: MacBook ProTag: World Travel Adapter KitBuyer's Guide: MacBook Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: MacBook ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Executives Explain Why the MacBook Pro Finally Has a Touch Screen | MacRumors
Apple Executives Explain Why the MacBook Pro Finally Has a Touch Screen
Apple CEO John Ternus explained Apple's thinking on the MacBook Pro's new touch capabilities in an interview with Wired. Despite the addition of a touch display, Apple still sees the ‌MacBook Pro‌ as an indirect input device. From Ternus:The Mac is first and foremost an indirect input device, built around the trackpad and keyboard. But I think there's times when it's comfortable and handy to have touch. We needed to get to a point where adding touch didn't make the product lesser in any way. It didn't make it heavier. It didn't make it thicker. That came together with the OLED screen, the best display we've ever put into a Mac. All of these things, and, oh yeah, it has touch as well.Apple has in the past said it would not converge its iPad and Mac lines because they served two different functions. Hardware chief Johny Srouji and marketing chief Greg Joswiak were also interviewed. Srouji told Wired that display technology, Apple silicon chips, and software have evolved enough to meet Apple's "bar" for touch integration. Joswiak said pro users were waiting for touch, and that a generation of "young creators" expect touch capabilities. Apple's version of a touchscreen laptop has a redesigned thermal architecture to keep the display from feeling hot, an anti-reflective display coating that's Apple says won't need more cleaning than a standard display, and a reinforced hinge that keeps the screen stable when touch pressure is applied. The new OLED ‌MacBook Pro‌ models are available for pre-order today and will launch on November 6. Pricing starts at $2,899.Related Roundup: MacBook ProTag: John TernusBuyer's Guide: MacBook Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: MacBook ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

New MacBook Pro Features Deeper Bass and Improved Closed-Lid Audio
Apple's new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models feature an upgraded six-speaker sound system, with redesigned woofers and tweeters, along with dedicated audio tuning for use with the lid closed. Apple says the new woofer design delivers 50% deeper bass, while redesigned tweeters improve clarity by shaping how sound disperses. The system continues to support Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos. For the first time, Apple has also added dedicated audio tuning for closed-lid use. The company says this improves sound quality when the MacBook Pro is connected to an external display, allowing users to continue using its built-in speakers in a desktop setup. The new ‌MacBook Pro‌ models are available to pre-order now and launch on November 6.

Apple's New Touchscreen MacBook Pro Costs Up to $14,549 | MacRumors
Apple's New Touchscreen MacBook Pro Costs Up to $14,549
Apple's new touchscreen MacBook Pro models start at $2,899 for the 14-inch version and $3,399 for the 16-inch version, but configuring the machines with every hardware upgrade pushes their prices well above $14,000. The starting configurations and U.S. prices are as follows: 14-inch MacBook Pro with M5 Pro: $2,899 with a 15-core CPU, 16-core GPU, 24GB of unified memory, and 1TB SSD, up from $2,499. 16-inch MacBook Pro with M5 Pro: $3,399 with an 18-core CPU, 20-core GPU, 24GB of unified memory, and 1TB SSD, up from $2,999. 14-inch MacBook Pro with M5 Max: $4,499 with an 18-core CPU, 32-core GPU, 36GB of unified memory, and 2TB SSD, up from $4,099. 16-inch MacBook Pro with M5 Max: $4,799 with an 18-core CPU, 32-core GPU, 36GB of unified memory, and 2TB SSD, up from $4,399. The $400 premium represents an increase of approximately 16% for the entry-level 14-inch M5 Pro configuration and 13% for its 16-inch counterpart. The M5 Max models see increases of approximately 10% and 9%, respectively. This is compared to the previous, non-touchscreen models' prices immediately before today's announcement, rather than their lower prices at launch before Apple's hikes. At the other end of the range, Apple's configurator allows the 14-inch touchscreen MacBook Pro to reach $14,249 and the 16-inch model to reach $14,549. Both configurations include the highest-end M5 Max chip with an 18-core CPU and 40-core GPU, 128GB of unified memory, a 16TB SSD, and nano-texture glass. Storage accounts for much of the expense when configuring. On the highest-end M5 Max configuration, upgrading the standard 2TB SSD to 4TB costs $1,000, 8TB costs $3,000, and the new 16TB option costs $7,000. Moving from 48GB to 128GB of unified memory adds another $2,000, while nano-texture glass costs $150. The preceding 16-inch MacBook Pro topped out at $10,149 with 128GB of memory, an 8TB SSD, and nano-texture glass. The new model's $14,549 maximum is $4,400 higher, or approximately 43%, although that comparison includes twice as much storage. Configured with the same 8TB capacity, the new 16-inch model costs $10,549, an increase of $400. The touchscreen ‌MacBook Pro‌ models are available to pre-order now, with availability beginning on Friday, November 6.Related Roundup: MacBook ProBuyer's Guide: MacBook Pro (Coming Soon)Related Forum: MacBook ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Brings Dynamic Island to Mac for the First Time | MacRumors
Apple Brings Dynamic Island to Mac for the First Time
Apple today introduced the Dynamic Island to the Mac for the first time with its new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models, bringing Live Activities, Spotlight, and Siri AI together in an interactive area of the display. The ‌Dynamic Island‌ first launched on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max in September 2022. It replaced the notch with a smaller TrueDepth camera cutout surrounded by software that expands and changes shape to display alerts, ongoing Live Activities, and controls. The Mac version carries over the idea of keeping ongoing activities visible and accessible while users work in other apps. Apple says users can do things like answer a phone call, control music playback, and accept an AirDrop request through the interface. The ‌Dynamic Island‌ also serves as a location for Spotlight and ‌Siri‌ AI. With the new MacBook Pro's touchscreen, actions such as pausing a song can also simply be performed with a tap. While the original iPhone implementation incorporated the TrueDepth camera system used for Face ID, the new ‌MacBook Pro‌ retains Touch ID for authentication and features a 12-megapixel Center Stage camera. The arrival of the ‌Dynamic Island‌ therefore does not bring ‌Face ID‌ to the Mac. The new ‌MacBook Pro‌ models became available to pre-order on October 28 and launch on November 6. U.S. pricing starts at $2,899 for the 14-inch model and $3,399 for the 16-inch model.Related Roundup: MacBook ProTag: Dynamic IslandBuyer's Guide: MacBook Pro (Coming Soon)Related Forum: MacBook ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

The new ‌MacBook Pro‌ features a "PROLED XDR Display." OLED displays illuminate individual pixels without a separate backlight, so the new model requires a different approach to lighting the logo.

Apple Announces OLED MacBook Pro With Touch Display | MacRumors
Apple Announces OLED MacBook Pro With Touch Display
Apple today announced a new high-end MacBook Pro, which is available in 14-inch and 16-inch sizes. The new device has a PROOLED XDR display that supports touch gestures, and a glowing rear Apple logo. Pricing on the ‌MacBook Pro‌ starts at $2,899 for the 14-inch model and $3,399 for the 16-inch model. Apple says the ‌MacBook Pro‌ has the "world's best display in a pro laptop." The ProLED display uses tandem OLED paired with advanced algorithms in the display engine and factory calibration for "exceptional brightness, striking contrast, and vivid true-to-life colors." The display offers up to 2000 nits peak HDR and SDR brightness, along with a 10,000,000:1 contrast ratio. A display engine controls the color and luminance of each pixel, compensating for content, temperature, environment, and pixel use. ProMotion technology is available with refresh rates ranging from 10Hz to 120Hz. An antireflective coating cuts down on glare in bright lighting conditions, and there is an option to order the new ‌MacBook Pro‌ with a nano-texture display. A touch sensor is built directly in the display panel, so there is no added latency. Apple says touch interactions feel "incredibly responsive and refined." Users can swipe scroll through a webpage with a swipe, pinch to zoom in on a photo, drag and drop slides from one presentation to another, and double-tap a window to have it fill the screen. A new hinge design offers more stability when using touch, and advanced video stabilization smooths the camera feed when using touch on a video call. Apple says macOS automatically translates touch into clicks, so many existing apps will work with touch right away. The ‌MacBook Pro‌ is slimmer than the existing version, and it is lighter weight at just three pounds. There is no more notch, with Apple instead adding a small Dynamic Island that takes up less space. We're glowing with excitement over the new MacBook Pro. You've gotta touch it to believe it. https://t.co/BLiGkGaefL— John Ternus (@johnternus) October 28, 2026 The new ‌MacBook Pro‌ uses the same M5 Pro and M5 Max chips as the ‌MacBook Pro‌ models announced back in March. There is support for up to 128GB of unified memory, and a new six-speaker sound system with 50 percent deeper bass. Apple is selling the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ models alongside the existing mini-LED models and the new M6 14-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌. Pre-orders are available now, with a launch coming on Friday, November 6.

Apple Store Down Ahead of 'Pro and Tell' Launch Today
Apple has taken its online store down just minutes before its "Pro and Tell" experience in Los Angeles begins at 10 a.m. Pacific Time today.

It is not entirely clear if Apple will stick with MacBook Pro branding for these models, or if it will opt for a new name like MacBook Studio or MacBook Ultra. In the U.S., pricing will reportedly start at around $2,899 for the 14-inch model and at around $3,399 for the 16-inch model.

South Korea Rules Against Apple Over App Store Payment Rules | MacRumors
South Korea Rules Against Apple Over App Store Payment Rules
South Korea has fined Apple 20.8 billion won ($15.5 million) and ordered it to let developers link to external payment options from their apps, The Associated Press reports. The Korea Media and Communications Commission found that Apple and Google effectively require developers to use their payment systems, violating a 2021 law intended to allow alternatives. Google was fined 42.9 billion won ($32 million). Both companies allowed third-party payment services within apps, but charged developers a 26% commission and restricted some features. The regulator said these conditions pushed developers toward Apple and Google's payment systems, while rules against external payment links limited their other options. The companies must also improve their app review processes. The commission found that some reviews were delayed without clear explanations or information about when they would resume. It separately found that Apple charged South Korean developers higher commissions than overseas developers between 2015 and January 2023. Apple told The Associated Press that it disagrees with the ruling and is considering its legal options. The company says its policies comply with South Korean law and that its payment system helps protect customers against fraud.Tags: Apple Antitrust, App Store, Google, South KoreaThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

iOS 27.2 Adds Selfie-Based Age Verification
Apple has added selfie-based age verification in iOS 27.2 and iPadOS 27.2, allowing users in supported regions to demonstrate that they are adults without submitting a credit card or government-issued ID. The feature estimates whether someone is an adult by analyzing their face, according to a new Apple support document. The capture process involves following onscreen prompts to turn and tilt the head, providing views of the face from four directions. Apple says the verification process combines processing on the user's device with analysis through Private Cloud Compute. The results are brought together locally, and Apple says the images remain inaccessible to the company and anyone else during processing. After successful verification, the selfie is deleted. Users who receive an age confirmation prompt may be offered the option, although availability varies by location. Regional requirements determine when adult verification is necessary. Possible triggers include setting up an Apple Account, installing a software update, accessing apps rated 18+, and adjusting safety controls. Once a user has successfully established their adult status, Apple says further confirmation is unnecessary.

Organizations can also add and remove seats at any time depending on their needs.Multiseat purchasing for subscriptions is enabled by default in App Store Connect, unless you’ve previously adjusted this setting. This makes your subscription available for purchase through Apple Business, Apple School Manager, and the App Store. You can change these availability options at any time.Note about multiseat purchasing and groups Multiseat purchasing in App Store Connect also supports subscriptions for groups. Beginning October 28, 2026, you can configure and test your group purchases in your Sandbox Apple Account to prepare for launch. This winter, group purchases will be available on the App Store, letting people buy multiple seats for your subscription and invite others to access it.Manage purchase options for an auto-renewable subscription App Store Connect API: Configuring multiseat subscriptions for organizationsOffer subscriptions to groups and organizations
