That's right guys you read that correct
touchscreen MacBooks are on their way and they're coming sooner than you think so today
what I want to talk about is when are these brand new touchscreen MacBooks on their way and what
other technology is coming along with them and also the history of why we've only started to get
touchscreen MacBooks now and why we haven't had them say 10 years ago or so so let's first of all
talk about when touchscreen MacBooks are on their way so believe it or not it goes back to a post
that we had from Russia at the end of 2022 where he said that the first OLED MacBook Air is on its
way and it could be coming at the end of 2024. now just in case you didn't know right now the Mac
for air uses an LCD sort of Retina Display and we've had this technology a long long time and
the likes of say the iPads uses technology too except for the 12.9 inch iPad Pro what uses mini
LED technology energy and this technology is also in the 14th and 16 inch MacBook Pro and this will
come relevant very very soon as you will see but the main thing is an OLED display is not in any of
Apple's sort of iPad lines or their MacBook lines at all at the moment in fact we only have OLED
displays in the likes of say the Apple watch and we also have them in our iPhones and specifically
mainly all the iPhones it's the iPhone 12 have an OLED display don't get me wrong the iPhone 10 was
actually the first iPhone to get an OLED display but the lights say the iPhone 8 or came out that
year and the year after every year the iPhone 10r and even the iPhone 11 the basic one still has an
LCD display it wasn't until the iPhone 12 where everything switched over to OLED and since then
we've had improvements like Pro motion and things like this but for bigger displays we've actually
had a mini LED display as we've seen like I said in the iPad Pro and also in the 14th and 16 inch
MacBook Pro but if you know any think about mini LED and OLED technology you'll know that OLED
technology is a bit more Superior it gives that sort of more vibrant kind of look and it also
sort of brightens UPS colors and also it's really really power efficient and it looks like finally
this could be coming to the MacBook Air at least now the reason why I'm talking about these OLED
displays is because I believe there's more to the picture here as we've seen here we have another
report coming from minchi quo as well as your boss young who said that we would be getting OLED
display he also confirmed that minchi quo saying that it's coming in the end of 2024 early 2025.
what does kind of make sense that the brand new sort of MacBook Air this is the 13 inch model not
the new plus model we're expecting this year that we will have the M3 chipset will come out in
2024 because by that sort of time you know I would actually say that it's probably been about
you know just under two years since the M2 MacBook Air came out so it's due that refresh around that
time but what's also most likely going to happen is soon after that MacBook Air gets an OLED
display we'll be wondering about the likes to say the MacBook Pro well as you know we're
expecting the 14 and the 16 inch MacBook Pro with the M2 Pro and the M2 Max to be released
this year around spring or summer time and if you do your calculations probably around about 18
months later or so we hit early sort of 2025 and that is when it's probably an OLED display will be
also added to the MacBook Pro lineup and in fact if you look here at an article from Mark German
he's also confirmed that basically touchscreen technology is coming to the MacBook Pros as well
in early 2025 so this makes complete sense that for Apple to first of all make their MacBook airs
to have this OLED technology then to move over to the MacBook Pro in early 2025 to also have OLED
screen and also to make that screen also touch screen so this would to be I'm talking about
the M3 Pro and the M3 Max chipset and it would have these enhancements to the 14 inch and the
16 inch MacBook Pros to have these new screens in them with touch screen ability so it's really
really exciting to hear that this is how Apple will be raising the bar with their displays in
the next sort of generation of MacBooks after the generation that we have coming out right now
but you're probably wondering at this stage why is it taking Apple so long to put actual touch
screens into their sort of MacBook sort of models and everything like that well I believe it's
for multiple different reasons first of all if we go way back around about 10 12 years ago when
Steve Jobs was around he even said himself that he loved the idea of a multi-touch pad on the actual
sort of MacBook and it's far easier to do that we first got that proper sort of multi-step sort of
gesture on the original MacBook Air and that sort of kick-started all and basically around that time
touchscreen sort of laptops were just starting to come out but they weren't really popular at all
at that time all at the same time we had the iPad come out and that came out in 2009 and progressed
into this leading industry of tablet devices as we know right now and for example if Apple were to
introduce touchscreen MacBooks during that growth of the iPads you know the iPads could have fallen
flat on their feet the iPad needs to establish itself to be its own device I think Apple's been
waiting for the perfect time to finally release touchscreen ability also at the same time as well
I think Apple have been a little bit reluctant we've also have heard in the past in 2016 when
we actually saw the introduction of the touch bar inside the 13 inch and the 15-inch MacBook
Pros back then but basically we were told that it's not really comfortable to use sort of a
touch screen on the actual sort of a Macbook because of the AG or the actual display is so this
is why the touch bar came out and as we know the story here the touch bar wasn't the greatest
success in fact we've only got one model now what is the M2 MacBook Pro 13-inch model it has
that touch bar and we think that's going to be replaced very soon as well so to be deadly honest
you know everything else has moved away from that touch bar but since then we have had other devices
that have come out for the iPad line and what I'm talking about I'm talking about the magic keyboard
folio and the magic keyboard This is the ability to actually use a touch pad and a keyboard and
also touch the screen I think Apple are warming up to the idea that they need to bring in sort of
touchscreen technology into their actual displays and basically this is finally going to happen and
I think a big pressure behind this is because of a gen Z sort of people out there now getting used
to sort of touch screens gen Z people have always had sort of touchscreen technology near them and
they're kind of sort of pushing forward to say well why can't I map but have that I'm going
to admit to myself I'm actually a millennial sort of person and so we I've been used to touch
screen sort of devices and also touchpads as well so I can use sort of both but mainly that gen C
sort of generation it's got used to using sort of touch sort of displays and they're probably
crying out there why can't the MacBook have this don't get me wrong I'm sure other Generations
out there you would love it too but basically I think you know you can understand that Apple
I've been waiting on this to get the time right and one thing that we got to understand with all
of this I think it also proves the point that the iPad live will still be moving in its own separate
Direction and that we probably will not see Mac OS come over to the iPad because if we do bring out
sort of touchscreen abilities on the MacBook Pro there'd be sort of no point in having one device
or the other because of this so as you know got the magic keyboard like I said with the iPad Pro
or the iPad sort of portfolio design you get the idea there's just no point whatsoever putting
Mac OS on that because you'd sort of defeat the object of a MacBook Pro yes you'd have less
ports and also there's no point doing any other way around to bring iPad OS crazy idea onto the
MacBooks because again it just makes no sense to do that I think Apple wants to distinguish both of
these products still going into the future and the best way they can do this it just probably makes
slight adjustments to Mac OS to begin with to have touchscreen abilities what I'm talking about
I'm talking about like the ability for like sliders and scrollers as it was so scrolling
through web pages with your finger flicking it through like we do right now on an iPad I don't
think you're going to get anything sort of too intricate I don't think we're going to get sort
of apple pencil support maybe straight away but we might get it in the future you never know we'll
have to see I think Apple are going to be sort of touching the water here just to see how much of
an appeal sort of touch screen is going to be they do not want to make that same mistake with sort
of the touch bar technology so it's going to be really interesting to see but the main thing to
take away from this video it does look like that touch screen MacBooks are finally on their way and
also OLED displays are also coming to the MacBook range so this is really really exciting to hear
and on that note guys I would love to know your thoughts on the touchscreen MacBook what do you
think about them do you think you would love to have one or do you think they should just leave
them as sort of a multi sort of touch sort of um sensor that we have right now the actual pad
I would love to know your fault so please do put them in the comments below and also at the same
time guys it's also time to wrap up the video so if you have enjoyed watching it please do press
