Apple CEO John Ternus also shared a teaser for the new MacBook in a video on X, showing the Apple logo on the laptop’s lid lighting up. Pre-orders for the touchscreen MacBook Pro open today and it will be available on November 6th, starting at $2,899 for the 14-inch model or $3,399 for the 16-inch. Its touch display is a ProLED XDR tandem OLED panel with up to 2000 nits of brightness and a 120Hz refresh rate.

The touchscreen MacBook has been a long time coming, even by Apple’s “fashionably late” standards — touchscreens have been mainstream on Windows laptops for well over a decade now. It was rumored for years before finally becoming a reality, much like the new iPhone Duo. Both devices are among the first Apple launched under its new CEO, John Ternus, who formerly led hardware engineering at Apple.

Earlier this week, Apple also announced a new entry-level MacBook Pro, M6 iMac, and an OLED iPad Mini.
