The long-awaited laptops feature a Tandem OLED display with full touch capabilities, while also cutting some weight, and bringing back the glowing Apple logo. While a little less exciting, there’s also an updated 14-inch MacBook Pro that includes Apple’s M6 CPU, along with improved wireless connectivity. Like the generation before it, this is a small, somewhat iterative update, without substantial new features beyond performance gains.Alongside the MacBook updates, Apple also took the opportunity to update the iMac with M6 chips, which start at $1,499, with the same color variants as the previous generation. Lastly, the iPad Mini got some love, with a larger OLED display that has smaller bezels, as well as water resistance, plus a slimmer and lighter design.Preorders for the 14-inch MacBook Pro are live at Apple and Best Buy, while the MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR display is currently only available for preorder at Apple, although we expect Best Buy to follow suit soon.
