The first hints of a touch-screen MacBook have already become a reality

The laptop market is gearing up for another significant update, as Apple is officially working on a premium MacBook with a touchscreen. The idea of combining a classic laptop form factor with a full touchscreen has long been discussed in the tech community, but the company traditionally avoided moving to this format. Now the situation is changing, and by early 2026, users may see the first MacBook that responds to touch. This is not just the addition of a new feature, but a rethinking of how to interact with macOS and Apple’s portable devices in general.

Why laptops are becoming fanless and what it means for performance

Why modern laptops are abandoning coolers and how this affects heating and speed

Not so long ago, fanless laptops seemed like niche devices: they were bought only by those who valued absolute silence rather than speed. It was believed that passive cooling could not cope with the heat generated by the processor, which meant that the performance of such laptops would be low. However, in recent years the situation has changed dramatically. The market has seen models that combine silence, compactness, and enough power for everyday tasks. This is not just a trend, but the result of significant changes in the approach to hardware design and processor architectures.
