Apple may end long resistance to touchscreen Mac laptops
The company is due to hold a Los Angeles event after recent launches elsewhere, as pressure grows to bring phone-style touch to its laptop line ahead of the holiday shopping season.
Apple is expected to unveil its first touchscreen MacBooks at a Los Angeles event on Wednesday.
The company recently launched a folding iPhone, Duo, in Silicon Valley and a smart home hub in New York.
Past leaders long opposed laptop touchscreens; analysts say buyer habits have shifted.
An upgraded base MacBook Pro with an M6 chip was announced this week; touchscreen models may use existing M5 Pro and M5 Max chips.
The foldable iPhone Duo is priced at about $2,000, with supply described as scarce.
