Apple is reportedly ‌developing a more affordable MacBook, aiming to lower ‍the entry price for its laptop line to around ‍$700. This potential budget model arrives as Apple recently upgraded⁣ its⁣ existing⁣ entry-level⁣ laptops with the M4 MacBook Air and M5 MacBook Pro.

The move comes‍ amid a broader evolution of Apple’s laptop⁤ division, with⁤ plans for a MacBook Pro featuring⁣ an OLED touchscreen anticipated by the end of 2026. A lower-priced MacBook ⁤would broaden Apple’s market reach, perhaps attracting customers⁣ currently priced out of the ecosystem and increasing competition in the ⁤Windows-dominated budget ⁢laptop segment. Currently, the most⁢ affordable MacBook Air with the M4⁤ chip starts at $1099.

These releases represent Apple’s continued investment in spatial computing, professional workflows, and mobile productivity. ‍The advancements impact creative professionals, developers, and early adopters seeking cutting-edge technology, with the Vision⁤ Pro updates specifically ⁣addressing user feedback regarding extended wearability. The new products ⁢will roll out across key international⁤ markets starting October 22, with availability varying by region.

Affordable MacBook: A18 Pro vs. A19 Pro Chip Rumors

by Rachel Kim – Technology Editor September 25, 2025

Apple’s Entry-Level MacBook Chip⁣ Choice Remains Undecided: A18‍ Pro or A19 Pro?

CUPERTINO, ⁣CA – The hotly anticipated, more affordable MacBook, rumored to launch in late 2025 or early 2026,⁢ is still facing a key decision regarding⁢ its processor: will it utilize the A18 ‌Pro chip currently found in the iPhone 16 Pro, or the newer A19 Pro? ‍Recent reports offer conflicting insights into Apple’s plans.

Initial indications in June pointed⁢ towards the A18 Pro. Analyst ming-Chi ⁤Kuo suggested the entry-level MacBook would feature this chip, a prediction supported by findings from Aaron Perris of Macrumors and confirmed by Digitimes. This would suggest Apple has finalized specifications with the A18 Pro⁢ at ⁢its core.

Though, ⁢last week, Weibo account Mobile Phone Chip ⁢Expert claimed Apple is considering the A19 Pro for the device. The account further specified a potential split, with the MacBook possibly ⁤receiving either⁢ the 6-core GPU version from the iPhone⁣ 17 Pro or the 5-core GPU⁣ version from a potential iPhone Air. This source previously accurately predicted 12GB of RAM ⁣for at ⁤least one iPhone 17 model, lending credibility to the claim.

Performance differences between the two chips ⁤are significant. The A18 pro is expected to deliver performance comparable to Apple’s M1 chip, paired with 8GB of unified memory. The A19 Pro, conversely, promises faster processing ⁢speeds and a substantial upgrade to 12GB of unified memory. Notably,Apple’s newer Mac range currently ⁤begins ‍with 16GB of RAM,with the exception of the older M1 MacBook Air ⁢sold at Walmart for $599.

Regardless of the chip chosen, both the A18 Pro and A19 Pro lack integrated Thunderbolt support. This means the new macbook will likely feature standard USB-C ports, limited to 10 Gbps data transfer speeds⁤ and single⁢ external display support (without a DisplayLink adapter).

Current predictions suggest a 13-inch model available in silver, blue, pink, and yellow. Apple traditionally unveils new Macs in October, making⁤ that month a likely reveal‍ window.If not, consumers may have to wait until March 2026 for the launch.

MacBook Pro OLED: Launch Date, Samsung & Potential M5 Delay

Breaking News: Samsung is poised to become a key supplier of OLED panels for future MacBook Pro models, potentially as early as late 2026, according to reports from Macrumors adn Dealsite. This development is fueled by Samsung’s advancements in oxide technology, enabling lower energy consumption, scalable panel sizes, and reduced production costs.

MacBook Pro OLED: Launch Date, Samsung & Potential M5 Delay

Apple’s transition from Mini-LED to OLED display technology in the MacBook Pro line represents a significant upgrade. OLED displays are known for their superior picture quality,characterized by deeper blacks,higher contrast ratios,and improved brightness compared to traditional LCD and even Mini-LED technologies. This shift is expected to enhance the viewing experience for professionals and consumers alike.

Beyond visual improvements,OLED technology offers significant energy efficiency gains. Each pixel in an OLED display emits its own light, meaning pixels displaying black are fully off, reducing power consumption.This translates to longer battery life for MacBook Pro users, a critical feature for mobile professionals. Samsung Display, headquartered in Yongin, South Korea, has been a leading innovator in OLED technology for smartphones and is now scaling its production capabilities for larger displays suitable for laptops.

The timing of the OLED MacBook Pro launch remains somewhat uncertain. If Apple proceeds with the M5 series chip release in 2026, the OLED display integration could be delayed until early 2027. However, an M5 launch in early 2026 could pave the way for an OLED-equipped MacBook Pro release in late 2026. This would mark the most substantial MacBook Pro redesign since the introduction of the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips in 2021.

Context: OLED vs. Mini-LED – While Mini-LED offers improvements over traditional LCDs, OLED provides a fundamentally different viewing experience. mini-LED relies on a backlight with thousands of tiny LEDs,while OLED is emissive,meaning each pixel generates its own light. This difference results in perfect blacks and infinite
