Apple’s flagship MacBook Pro laptop is widely expected to get the M5 chip this year, but what else could we see? Here’s everything we know about it so far.

So, while the M5 chip is now anticipated to find its way into the MacBook Pro before the iPad Pro, don’t be surprised if it’s more of an incremental refresh than anything else

Apple will bring its next-generation M5 chip to the MacBook Pro in the fall, followed by the iPad Pro in the first half of 2026, according

The M5 is expected to debut with new MacBook Pro models, rather than the iPad Pro. When it comes to revolutions in technology, few have been as marked as when Apple made the switch to in-house silicon.

TL;DR: Get a refurbished 2017 Apple MacBook Pro with Touch Bar for only $377.97 (Reg $1,499). While not all technological advances are unreservedly welcome, it’s truly wonderful to find that hardware has finally advanced to the point where we don’t need cutting-edge laptops.
