Apple has announced its first touchscreen laptop, a 14-inch MacBook Pro powered by the M6 chip, priced at $2,899, Yahoo Finance Singapore reports. The announcement was made on Wednesday, 28 October 2026, as part of a broader run of product news from the company.
The launch marks Apple's entry into touchscreen laptops, a category it had previously left to other PC makers. According to Yahoo Finance Singapore, the new machine is the company's first notebook to offer touch input. Apple's own announcement of the device centres on the 14-inch MacBook Pro with M6, while The Verge has rounded up everything the company announced during the week.
Coverage of the launch has focused on pricing as much as hardware. Bloomberg reported that Apple is betting MacBook Pro buyers will pay more for touch screens, framing the $2,899 price as a test of how much customers will spend on the added capability. CNA also reported on the introduction of the touchscreen laptops, describing the move as part of a wider product blitz from the company.
The reports do not detail specifications beyond the M6 chip and the 14-inch screen size, and Apple has not yet said when the model will ship or which markets will receive it first.
What to watch next: whether buyers accept the premium for touch input, and when Apple confirms availability and full specifications for the new MacBook Pro.
