# Apple Sets Oct. 28 Event With Touchscreen MacBook Pro Expected By Simon Yoon Canonical URL: https://www.tokenpost.com/news/technology/35509 Published: 2026-10-20T09:46:59.000Z Updated: 2026-10-20T09:46:59.000Z Section: Technology > The Los Angeles event is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (17:00 UTC). Apple has not named the products it will show. Apple has scheduled a “Pro and tell” media event in Los Angeles on Oct. 28, giving a date to a showcase expected to feature its first touchscreen MacBook Pro. The in-person event begins at 1 p.m. ET (17:00 UTC). Apple’s invitation does not identify any devices, so the expected lineup remains unannounced. The touchscreen MacBook Pro is expected in 14-inch and 16-inch versions with organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays and M5 Pro or M5 Max chips. The screens would replace the current mini-LED displays, with Dynamic Island expected in place of the notch. Adding touch input would mark a change for the Mac, which has remained without a touchscreen while the iPhone and iPad use touch controls. Other expected products include an entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro and a 24-inch iMac with M6 chips, plus an OLED iPad mini. The iPad mini is also expected to move its front camera to the long edge and have redesigned speakers. A [previously listed product schedule]() placed those Mac and iPad models in a tentative Nov. 6 release slot. Apple’s Oct. 28 invitation confirms the event date, but does not establish when any product will go on sale. ## Links in this article - [previously listed product schedule](https://www.tokenpost.com/news/technology/34626)
