Apple is reported to be developing MacBook Pro models with OLED displays, with launch timing discussed as early 2027, and a new chip option possibly tied to that refresh. Analysts cited by outlets say the OLED-equipped laptop could also come with an M5 Ultra configuration, a step beyond the current MacBook Pro lineup of Pro and Max chips.
Both sources reference Omdia analyst David Hsieh as the basis for the claim that an M5 Ultra option may appear in the OLED MacBook Pro. MacRumors adds that this could align with speculation that some models might be branded as “MacBook Ultra,” though it notes there has never been a MacBook with an Ultra chip. AppleInsider also describes the idea as plausible but expresses skepticism, arguing that the “Ultra” framing and the specific M5 Ultra option are still uncertain, especially compared with earlier reporting that mentioned only M5 Pro and M5 Max.
Overall, the coverage agrees on the OLED MacBook Pro direction and the possibility of an M5 Ultra option, while differing mainly in confidence: MacRumors treats the scenario as a logical extension of earlier rumors, while AppleInsider emphasizes doubt about the likelihood.
