MacBook Pro M6 OLED LEAKS - This Changes EVERYTHING!
By Matt Talks Tech
Summary
## Key takeaways - **M6 Pro/Max OLED End 2026**: At the end of 2026, we could be getting the new M6 Pro and M6 Max MacBook Pros with an OLED display inside of them for the very first time for any MacBook model. [00:00], [01:35] - **Touchscreen Finally Arrives**: After many years of not having a touchscreen built into a MacBook Pro, it looks like it's finally on its way, with a big Mac OS update probably to enable this. [02:52], [03:13] - **Dynamic Island Replaces Notch**: Apple could be adopting a dynamic island kind of approach into Mac OS with a single selfie camera in the top, replacing the useless notch, but probably not Face ID. [03:48], [04:19] - **2nm Chip Boosts Efficiency**: The M6 Pro and M6 Max are going to be made on Apple's new 2 nanometer process with TSMC, cramming transistors into a smaller space for better battery life and faster speeds. [06:57], [07:23] - **Thinner Design with Vapor Chamber**: The new MacBook Pros are going to be a little bit thinner due to chip efficiencies and thinner OLED rims, with redesigned cooling systems possibly including a vapor chamber. [07:31], [08:27] - **Built-in 5G Cellular eSIM**: MacBook Pros could have a C1X or C2 chip for the first time ever, adding built-in 5G/4G connectivity with eSIM so you wouldn't have to use a personal hotspot.

So then guys, at the end of 2026, we could be getting the new M6 Pro and M6 Max, MacBook Pros with an OLED display
inside of them. And today, I want to go over all the details about these brand new models that are on its way. And in
fact, I want to tell you a total of six leaks and rumors. And plus, I want to go over the release date details and also price details, too. But first of all, let's talk about where we currently are
with the MacBook Pro. So, right now with the MacBook Pro, we are just awaiting now to get the new M5 Max and M5 Pro into our hands. It should be coming
very, very soon. But these are going to be the last generations of these MacBook Pros of the current design that we have right now. And this is the same design
right now. And this is the same design that we have had ever since 2021. This
was the last time we got the new kind of redesign for the MacBook Pro and it has served us well during that time. We've
had a miniLEDD display. We've had some great cooling. We've had a 14 and 16in
great cooling. We've had a 14 and 16in display option of these and these have been fantastic Macs over these last kind of 5 years or so. But like I said, a new
design is on its way and I want to tell you all the details about this. And
let's get started with number one. And
that is all to do with the actual display. So with the display of this new
display. So with the display of this new MacBook Pro, this is going to be the main highlight of it is that we're going to get an OLED display added in for the
very first time for any MacBook model.
Don't forget right now we do have OLED displays in the likes of iPhones and also the iPad Pro. Apple watches have them too, but this is going to be the first time inside of a MacBook model. So
obviously, yeah, the MacBook Pro is going to get this. Now, for the actual display, the type of technology, it's going to be very similar to like what we get inside of the iPad Pro right now.
And if you've used the new iPad Pro, the M4, the M5 version, you will know that the display in this is absolutely gorgeous. So, it's really great that
gorgeous. So, it's really great that something like this is coming along to the MacBook Pros. Of course, this display will also be prootion enabled up
to 120 Hz most likely and also go right back down to maybe one herz, very similar to like what an iPhone can do right now. So, this would definitely
right now. So, this would definitely help out there for helping out with battery life and also for creators out there who do actually want to see, you know, faster frames per second, you know, if they're recording at 120 frames
per second or things like this to see that in real life on, you know, that actual MacBook Pro. So yeah, this is definitely the biggest highlight with this. But then after this, for the
this. But then after this, for the second big upgrade, we've heard it's coming to the MacBook Pros and that is also it looks like touchscreen is finally coming to them as well. So after
many years of not having a touchcreen built into a MacBook Pro, this is looks like it's finally on its way at last.
We've had leaks and rumors telling us about this that we are going to get a touchcreen potentially added to the MacBook Pro this time round. how this is going to work with Mac OS. We're going
to have to see obviously because this will be Mac OS 27 probably by that point. So yeah, probably a big update
point. So yeah, probably a big update will drop to enable this when these new MacBook Pros do come available. So yeah,
this is really exciting news to see how Apple are going to adapt this and how this is going to help many of you guys out there. But then for the third big
out there. But then for the third big upgrade we've heard about and that's all to do with the cameras on the top. So
right now with the MacBook Pros, something what probably people hate the most has got to be this notch. This
notch is absolutely useless why it's here. I don't know what Apple were
here. I don't know what Apple were thinking. Maybe they were planning to
thinking. Maybe they were planning to put Face ID up here. Who knows? It never
came to be. But the point is, we are not fans of it. I am definitely not a fan of it. But the good news is it looks like
it. But the good news is it looks like that Apple could be adopting a kind of dynamic island kind of approach into Mac OS and that we'd actually get say a single selfie camera in the top this
time round. probably not going to get
time round. probably not going to get Face ID because at the end of the day to have Face ID sensors and things like this, the actual screen would have to be thicker on the back and I don't think that's what Apple want to do there.
Probably it will just be a standard webcam. We're probably still going to
webcam. We're probably still going to get Touch ID actually on the actual keyboard. So yeah, don't get any Dreams
keyboard. So yeah, don't get any Dreams of Face ID just yet is what I would be saying. But the cool thing is that we
saying. But the cool thing is that we get dynamic island. You'd probably get your notifications very similar to like how it works with an iPhone right now.
So yeah, at least having like a hole punch kind of camera, little tiny island. This is definitely something
island. This is definitely something cool that is actually on its way to the MacBook Pros. But just quickly guys, I
MacBook Pros. But just quickly guys, I want to quickly tell you about the giveaway we're doing on this channel for this a Mac Mini M4 Pro that I'm giving
away to one lucky subscriber on this channel. And just in case you want to
channel. And just in case you want to know who won the iPhone 17 Pro Max, well, check out my videos because I did do a live stream saved on the channel and you'll see who the winner was there.
But back to this Mac Mini. Like I said, it's the M4 Pro version. We've got 512 GB of storage. We've also got 24 GB of
RAM, and I'm giving this away to one lucky subscriber when we get to 800,000 subscribers. And it's not that far away.
subscribers. And it's not that far away.
And all you have to do is enter in. It's
just a few simple things. The first
thing to do, share this video with family and friends because the sooner we get to 800,000 subscribers, the sooner I can give this away right away to a brand
new subscriber. And I cannot wait to
new subscriber. And I cannot wait to give it away to that person. So, make
sure you do that right now. The other
thing what you need to do and also your friends and family need to do if they want to enter in as well is put down into the comments below of what technology gear you're hoping to get in 2026.
Do that right now. And then the other thing as well is when we get to 800,000 subscribers, I'll be making a video here on this channel giving you the details of when I'm going to do the live stream
to give this away. and you won't want to miss out on that because there will be a form to fill in and things like this. So
yeah, and that's another good reason you want to subscribe right now cuz you won't want to miss out on that video.
But the last thing I just want to quickly say to you guys, there are still lots of scammers and spammers out there.
People still impersonating me tend to WhatsApp Telegram Instagram direct mesh, Discord, you name it. Please do
ignore these people. Best still, as you can see right here, please do report them. And as I will say again guys, make
them. And as I will say again guys, make sure you also share this video with friends and families and get them to subscribe as well and also with the potential for them to enter in too. And
with that, let's return back to the main video. But moving on from this, for the
video. But moving on from this, for the fourth big upgrade we've heard about, and obviously this is going to be the stand what we were expecting. We are
going to get the next generation of the chipset. So we're going to get the likes
chipset. So we're going to get the likes of the M6 Pro and we're also going to get the M6 Max added into these. Now,
the great thing about these new chipsets is they're going to be made on Apple's new 2 nanometer process with TSMC. Right
now, we've been using 3 nanometer processors for the last couple of generations ever since M3, but this will be a brand new process, even smaller on the die. What this means is that
the die. What this means is that transistors and resistors will be crammed in even to a more smaller space now. And this means efficiencies will go
now. And this means efficiencies will go up. So, this means battery life can be
up. So, this means battery life can be better this time round. And also we can get faster speeds out of this too. But
that also does lead me on to the next thing I want to talk about the fifth thing and that is also that the new design of the MacBook Pros are probably going to be a little bit thinner this time round because of those efficiencies
and things like this. Maybe the
batteries can made be made slightly smaller. Don't let that throw you off
smaller. Don't let that throw you off because of the new transistors and you know the new die on the M6 Pro and the M6 Max. This is going to help out that
M6 Max. This is going to help out that the new MacBook Pros are going to be in a slightly thinner design that we have right now. Don't think we're going to go
right now. Don't think we're going to go as thin as say a MacBook Air, but think of the current MacBook Pros that we have right now and the current MacBook Air, something in the middle there. That's
how thick it will be. So, slightly
thinner, not by much. And plus having that OLED display as well, it means the top rim here can also be slightly thinner as well. So, that will also help out there. So, don't get too worried
out there. So, don't get too worried about that. But that also does lead me
about that. But that also does lead me on to say that obviously with this thinner design, it also could mean that obviously Apple are going to be possibly putting in a vapor chamber now.
Obviously with vapor chambers with the iPhones and also they're going to redesign all of the cooling systems inside of their MacBook Pros for the next generations of them. So don't worry about cooling either or throttling.
Obviously, Apple will be working on that and already foreseeing in the future that this design is going to be sticking around for about 5 years or so, that they're going to have to make calling absolutely supreme compared to what they
have even right now. But then finally, for the sixth big upgrade we've heard about, and this is quite an exciting one, it looks like Apple could be adding in the likes of a C1X chip or even the
likes of even their C2 chip, what could come out later on this year. This means
that for the first time ever, MacBook Pros could actually have Cellia built into them. So, this means the ability
into them. So, this means the ability then to connect to 5G 4G networks on the go. You wouldn't have to use personal
go. You wouldn't have to use personal hotspot on your iPhone or other devices.
You could actually use an eSIM built into your MacBooks. So, this is going to be something great to actually see. And
obviously, potentially we're going to see the next generation of the N1, what would be the N2 chip for your network connectivity as well. So yeah, this is really exciting that Apple also adding
this in. But then the next thing after
this in. But then the next thing after this you guys want to know is probably the release date and price. So let's
talk about the release date then first of all. So the release date what we've
of all. So the release date what we've been hearing as look at these leaks right here is that the new MacBook Pro is on target for the end of 2026 with a possible 2027
release date as well. Now, what I'm going to say with this, it has happened in the past that we have had two MacBook Pros released in the same year. Don't
forget a couple of years ago, we got the likes of the M2 Pro and the M2 Max introduced in a January. And then a bit later on in the year, kind of October, November time, we actually got the likes
of the M3 MacBook Pros all within the same year. And this could possibly
same year. And this could possibly happen again. The other thing that Apple
happen again. The other thing that Apple could also potentially just completely skip out M5 altogether and go straight to M6. This would be quite unusual
to M6. This would be quite unusual because obviously we've been hearing leaks and rumors we're going to get an M5 Pro and M5 Max. I think this is going to be doubtful. But the other extreme is that we could actually get these new MacBook Pros with the OLED display and
everything I've talked about today in early 2027.
We just don't know at this stage. But
the main thing is what we can see from these leaks here that panels are starting to get made now. We know these new MacBook Pros are on its way. And it
is targeted. It's either going to come out probably around about November time or it's going to be probably this time next year, early 2027.
It's the latest and when we'll get these new MacBook Pros. For pricewise, though, this is where things also get quite interesting, too. It's most likely that
interesting, too. It's most likely that the next generation of the MacBook Pros, the M6 standard chip is probably going to go in design. What you can see right
here. So, this is the current design we
here. So, this is the current design we have of the MacBook Pro right now. So,
you know, I don't think this is actually going to go into the OLED version straight away. And Apple did do this in
straight away. And Apple did do this in the past. Don't forget that the M1
the past. Don't forget that the M1 MacBook Pro and the M2 MacBook Pro used the last design MacBook Pro and that was with that Touch Bar. It wasn't until we got to M3 that they decided to actually
use the current same design as they use the Pro and the Max MacBook Pros. And
Apple probably going to do the same thing again here. So, if you're expecting a standard M6 OLED MacBook Pro, probably not going to happen straight away. It might happen in the
straight away. It might happen in the future with obviously like M8 or something like that. But if you are looking towards say the likes of say the M6 Pro and a 14in version of that,
prices for that right now start at $1,999 for it. Now, because we're getting this
for it. Now, because we're getting this OLED display being added in, there is the potential that an extra $100 or $200 could be added in there. Also, the whole fact of what's going on with RAM right
now, it's going up in price. I think
this could affect it. So, potentially
this new MacBook Pro could start at around about $2,200.
Just be aware of that. And it's the same with the 16in version. if you wanted to get that with say the OLED display and also say the likes of an M6 Pro inside
of it. Right now the M4 Pro starts at
of it. Right now the M4 Pro starts at $2,499.
This could also go up to say $2,599 or $2,699 for the starting price with an OLED display. So just be aware of that that
display. So just be aware of that that Apple could do this. The good scenario could be that Apple couldn't change it at all. the pricing could be exactly the
at all. the pricing could be exactly the same. I am going to say this, do not
same. I am going to say this, do not expect the pricing to be less than what the MacBook Pros are right now. It's
more likely it's going to be more, but there is the possibility they could also freeze the price. But like I said, history has shown us with the iPad Pro, for example, when we went from that M2
miniledd display version to the OLED display version with the M4, the price did go up, at least on the 13in model.
So yeah, just be aware of that that Apple could have that planned that the price could go up a little bit there.
But really guys, that is the latest and greatest we have on the OLED MacBook Pros. Are you excited for them? Are you
Pros. Are you excited for them? Are you
going to get one when they come out?
Well, let me know in the comments below.
And on that note, as well guys, it's time to wrap up the video, too. So, if
you have enjoyed watching it, please do press the like button. And as always, you want to hear the latest Apple news reviews and comparisons, make sure you subscribe to this channel and also hit that notification bell, too. Until next
