Apple will launch a MacBook Pro with a touch screen in 2026, according to Ming Chi Kuo. We believe to know why they have changed their minds

by

After thirteen years, refusing flatly, Apple has begun to prepare its first MacBook with a touch screen, according to the leaks that arrive from two fronts: Ming-Chi Kuo He has announced now That the MacBook Pro with OLED screen will arrive at the end of 2026, and will do so with tactile capabilities. Mark Gurman had already anticipated this possibility in Bloomberg Two years ago, although lacking the level of detail that Kuo has given. Why is it important. This change involves the admission that users’ expectations have changed and that Apple is willing to abandon one of its most entrenched dogmas to stay competitive. And above all: for the generational advance. The figures. Kuo has spoken: the MacBook Pro with OLED screen will begin its mass production at the end of 2026, incorporating a tactile screen with technology ON-CELL. This technology integrates tactile sensors directly into the upper panel layer, without the need for a separate touch layer. Gurman had initially speculated with a launch in 2025, but everything indicates that this schedule has moved to 2026, coinciding with the arrival of the OLED screens. It is not clear if the commercialization will also be at the end of 2026, or if the production will begin on that date, so the commercial arrival would be in 2027. The context. The decision does not arise in a vacuum. Apple is at a particular moment in its history: The MAC now generates more income than the iPad, becoming a more profitable business than expected. Meanwhile, the competition has integrated touch screens for years, setting a market expectation that Apple has ignored again and again. Apple has also been preparing the technological land: Since 2018 it began to unify applications between iPad and Mac. In 2020 it allowed iPhone applications to work in their MAC. Also in 2020 it premiered a more appropriate interface for tactile panels with macOS Big Sur. And in 2025, Macos 26 even more uniform interfaces of operating systems. All this has highlighted how strange it is to use an application designed for touch screen on a device that does not admit it. The turn. Steve Jobs was categorical about touch screens on computers: “Tactile surfaces do not want to be vertical,” He said in 2010. “After a prolonged period, your arm wants to fall.” Tim Cook maintained this position for years, comparing in 2012 the combination of tablets and portables with “combine a toaster with a fridge“ Now Apple is about to do exactly that. Between the lines. Jobs’s ergonomic argument was foundation, but the solution is in the complementary use, not on the total prohibition. Tactile tactile screens are not designed to be the primary interaction method, but an occasional complement to trackpad and keyboard to make Scrollpinch or interact with specific elements. On the other hand, at this point there is an entire generation that has grown with touch screens everywhere. For them it is unnatural to meet a screen without that capacity. Yes, but. Apple will gain competitiveness by eliminating frequent criticism and improve coherence between its devices. But it will also lose that clear distinction between products that defended so much. The MAC will be less unique and more complex conceptually. Deepen. If the 2026 Macbook Pro includes touch screen, it is reasonable to expect Apple to update macos to optimize the experience. This could translate into larger interface elements, specific gestures and an even greater convergence with ipados. The question about compatibility with Apple Pencilwhich would be important for creative professionals. The MacBook with a 2026 touch screen will mark the end of an era of conceptual purity in Apple, but also the beginning of an era of greater flexibility. It is not necessarily better or worse, it is different. And after thirteen years of refusing, Apple finally admits that the user sometimes knows what he wants.

Let’s tell you how to use Apple Intelligence To obtain information from what comes out on the screensomething you can do with the new functions of artificial intelligence of iOS 26. However, you will do the search with Chatgptthat from the previous version of iOS was already integrating into Apple Intelligence. This tries to be able to make a kind of screenshot at the time you want, but only and then ask the questions about anything that appears in it. You can ask you about some text, link or image, and even look for duplicate images. AI to ask for what you have on screen The first thing you have to do is Use the shortcut to get a screenshot When you want to ask a question related to something that appears on your mobile screen. For this, press at the same time the physical buttons to climb volume and ignition of your iPhone. This will take you to the new capture screen. In it, the controls for screen capture are above, to cancel it or save it. Below you have the functions of Apple Intelligencewhich will allow you to interact with the content. If a link appears, you will also have the option to enter the web that you see on the screen. If you click on the action to askyou are going to take Chatgpt within Apple Intelligence. The first time you do it, you will be asked to activate it. When you activate it, you will have a writing field. If you do nothing up an automatic action will appear, such as describing what appears on the screen. Here, You can ask any questions related to what appears to you On the screen. You can ask you from things related to the text to others that are related to some image, and even solve mathematical problems that appear to you. You also have a button Look for With the image iconwhat will do will be to perform an artificial intelligence search to find images similar to the one that appears on the screen at the time you have started the action.

Apple has succumbed to what was resisted for years: megapixels do matter

by

Apple has already celebrated the traditional Keynote to present your devices For the coming months. He has renewed his three Apple Watch families (with the Series 11, SE 3 and the Ultra 3), but we also have some Airpods pro 3 that began to be necessary. The main course, as usual, are the mobiles and we already have on the table the iPhone 17he iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone Air that arrives to compete the curious Superdelgados playground. Much of what is presented is conservative, but we had something very curious that does not usually happen with those of Cupertino: They have marcheds. Twice, in addition, and with two decisions that concern a single model: the iPhone 17 Pro. The first is rectifying with the materials, passing the glass and the titanium to aluminum, being a Better material to solve a problem that the iPhone have been dragging for years. The second has to do with the megapixels of the Telefoto camera. Because for years Each new iPhone defended that the telephoto only had 12 megapixelsnow they take chest with a new 48 megapixel sensor. And with an optical zoom that is 4x instead of 5x of the last generations. The 48 megapixels of the iPhone 17 Pro Telefoto When the rest of the mobile industry He embarked on a race to conquer the megapixels (24, 48, 64 megapixels that strengthened in the mid -range, 108 and even 200 megapixels), There were a few companies that remained faithful to their philosophy: Google and Apple. Not directly, but implicit in their presentations, both defended that the 12 megapixels allowed sensors with pixels of a larger size, improving the capture of light and, at the same time, allowing computational photography to be carried out with agility (without long waiting times in the process) and with files of a contained size. Because climbing megapixels has a weight in the result: The same is not processed A photo at 12 mpx than one at 50 MPX and, the smaller the pixel of a sensor, the more megapixels, but less light “catch” and there are worst results with high lights and with shadows, for example. But the day arrived: Google went up to 50 megapixels with the Pixel 6 Pro and Apple did the same reaching the 48 megapixels with the iPhone 14 Pro. The approach of both has gone very hand, using those extra megapixels to make available to the user A 2X digital zoom which is a sensor cut. This has been called for years “zoom with optical quality”, not “optical zoom” because the software uses the main camera as hardware, but virtually cut the sensor to make that 2x increase. Quality is, in many cases, indistinguishable to that of a photo taken with a 2x optical. It would be necessary to talk that the focal distance of a 2x optical offers a different perspective, but in terms of image quality, those 2x of iPhone and Pixel are excellent. However, while the rest of the competition mounted sensors with more megapixels in all its cameras, Apple kept the telephoto anchored in the 12 megapixels. And so since they premiered it in the iPhone 7 Pluswhich is said soon. Telefoto sensors were being more and larger, yes, but the resolution did not change and that had a price: the digital zoom of the iPhone from the optical zoom of each generation (2x for years, but later 3x and 5x) It was far behind the rest of the industry. With increasingly present and mobile computational photography with an increasingly clear zoom thanks to that hardware mixture (lenses + megapixels) and software, Apple was staying behind. Until now. Finally, those of Cupertino have taken a step forward with three cameras with 48 megapixels. Thus, photos can be taken at full resolution or use the factory resolution (12 megapixels, but with larger virtual pixels to improve photography exposure and control size), but above all, allow a higher quality digital zoom. With the iPhone 17 Pro, Apple states that It is “how to have eight professional goals in your pocket” And, far from the brave marketing, they are part of reason. The iPhone 17 Pro has three cameras: Wide angle or 0.5x Main or 1x 4x Telefoto But, with different clippings of the sensor and the macro mode using the wide angle, we get 1.2x, 1.5x and 2x “hybrids” and one step further: an 8x that will be the one that applies the same formula as the 2x a couple of years ago: a cutting of the 48 megapixel sensor of the telephoto. In addition, it is a sensor 56% larger than the previous one, so photodiodes will also have an adequate size. On paper, It is more user versatilityand about practice is good news. It is true that the word “digital” has a tremendously negative connotation when we talk about the zoom due both to what the digital cameras did years ago and to the digital results of the mobile themselves, but with those clippings of the sensor that are achieved using large sensors And with a lot of megapixels, the thing changes. Photos with the 3X optical honor Magic V5 and with the 10x “hybrid”. Quality is brutal | Photo: Xataka It is Apple surrendering to evidence And, although we have to wait for the analysis of the iPhone 17 Pro to test these cameras, examples such as those seen with the Honor Magic V5he Pixel 10 Pro or the Samsung Galaxy S25 UltraThey allow us to excite ourselves with that 8x “of optical quality.” Now, there are those who can see it as a step back with respect to the 5x optical of the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 15 pro maxbut from my experience with the 2x hybrid of the iPhone (even of the 16 base), I think it is a movement in the right direction. And it is also about to see how the strictly digital zoom behaves beyond that 8x … Read more

We analyze the big question in video after the Apple event

by

Less than 24 hours have passed since Apple presented the new iPhone and, as usual, doubts arise: ¿It is worth renewing the mobile for any of the new models? Does it make sense to make the leap to iPhone Air or is it better to go directly for one of the Pro Line? You may even be valuing a third way: take advantage of discounts from previous models. We return with one of our favorite formats, the Versus. In it we have already compared watches for less than 200 euros, Tables for the Tour of Class And even some of Amazon’s best selling fryers. This time it is the turn of the iPhone. Although we still don’t have the new models in our hands, our partner Samuel Oliver He has put them face to answer the big question: Which one to choose from? Buy a new generation iPhone or take advantage of a previous model? For a long time, the pro models have monopolized all the prominence. This year, the situation has changed. “I think this year’s stars are the base models: we are finally Promotion with those 120 Hz and the 48 MP sensor In your main camera. He iPhone 17 He has inherited a lot from last year’s pro models and receives new chip, the A19 along with important improvements in the Selfie Chamber, ”says Samuel. In the video, our partner describes some of the key assets of the new entrance models, two elements that can be decisive for many users. “Pro models this year are more decaffeinated with potentYou like video and photography”, He adds in front of the camera, and launches a forceful appreciation on the iPhone Air. So far, what is the most difficult mobile to recommend? We will discover it. Samuel also raises several scenarios, including a very common one: those who are thinking of getting an iPhone of the previous generation. “It is Apple’s best telephone until the arrival of the new one, with all the camera news, processor, the camera control button, prepared for Apple Intelligence,” he says about one of the models that has been in the market for a while. In addition, it highlights some of its most relevant characteristics. In the video it is also explained what alternatives we have when Apple discourages models of your store. And here there is good news: It is possible to find interesting devices at lower pricesa more than valid option if you are looking for an iPhone without leaving a fortune. As always in VersusSamuel reviews the strengths and weaknesses of models such as iPhone 15 or the iPhone 14and leaves us not only with its winning option, but with clues for each type of user to find their best choice. The video It is now available on the Xataka YouTube channel. We invite you to see it and, of course, to leave your impressions in the comments.

Apple has taken a step back with the iPhone 17 Pro. It was necessary to make a leap forward

by

Apple has just presented the iPhone 17 PROy, with him, we already have all the letters on the table in terms of high performance processors. The new iPhone sets the soc a19 pro, the Pixel 10 Pro has the G5 tensor and we already knew the Snapdragon 8 Elite of mobiles like the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. Those of the apple carry generations fighting to mark the rhythm in terms of power Thanks to some chips that have less nuclei than those of the competition, but great performance both in CPU and GPU. They are also usually sparse when talking about concrete specifications, such as the frequency of these nuclei, but this year they have been overcome. They have given very few data from the A19 Pro and, nevertheless, They announce how big they are “The most powerful pro models ever created”. The funny thing is that this power of the iPhone 17 Pro can be more marked by the design of the mobile than only by the benefits of the processor itself. Because you don’t have to talk about how premium that is titanium and glass: you have to talk about aluminum. And it makes all the meaning in addition to a great enemy: the covers. THE DELIBLED MYSTERY OF THE A19 PRO Apple is a company that takes great care of communication and does not say a word higher than another without having seriously meditated. Before seeing how they are talking about the power of the new iPhone, let’s see what they wanted to teach the processor. To read something about A19 PRO, you have to go down to the middle of the terminal’s presentation page, where we can see that the soc “It offers the greatest power that an iPhone has had”. On the page characteristicsthey simply detail that it has six CPU nuclei (with two performance and four efficiency), six GPU cores with neuronal accelerators (this is the great novelty of this soc, by the way) and 16 nuclei in its ‘Neural Engine’. Same CPU nuclei and same configuration as the A18 PRO (And that the A17 PRO) and same GPU nuclei, but now each of those nuclei with a support for the locations of the AI ​​at the local level. We have not had the classic “yields x% more than the previous generation, something they detailed before. The only percentage of yield we have had is that of sustained yield 40% better. And this is what must be explained because it is not so much thanks to the A19 Pro … as the design of the iPhone 17 Pro. Steam chamber and aluminum body, performance keys On its website, Apple mentions that “thermal design innovation makes the GPU and CPU achieve up to a 40 % more constant performance“, And all” thanks to their advanced cooling technology and the unibody structure of aluminum “, which has” allowed them to create the most powerful iPhone of all time. “ In the first seconds of the presentation of this model, we saw that Apple focused on showing the new chassis of the iPhone 17 Pro: A unibody body which implies that the sides, the interior and much of what we will have in sight and between hands it has been created from one piece, and not joining several to create the body. It is something that Apple itself has already done in the past and that companies like Tesla, with her gigapressThey also use to build a chassis with the least possible number of pieces. But what attracts attention is the material: aluminum. Apple has a couple of generations selling the idea that titanium and crystal of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro It was the culmination of what we could understand as a mobile manufactured with premium materials and … do they return to aluminum after all these years? As paragraphs said: it is the decision that makes sense if they want solve a historical problem. Aluminum is a material that is used, next to copper, when creating the dissipators that we have in consoles, computers and other devices that generate heat. He is a great driver, so the heat of his chips is easily transferred to aluminum and, from there, to the environment, helping to refrigerate the circuitry. Titanium and, above all, crystal … are not great heat drivers. It depends on many factors such as alloy and thickness, but it is estimated that thermal conductivity, in watts per meter and Kelvin, of the three materials is as follows: As I say, it is a measure that depends, but w/mk above or down, it is evident that aluminum is much better dissipating the heat than the other two materials. But if the iPhone 17 pro were only aluminum, it would be uncomfortable in the hand under heavy tasks (or recording video, that there is no need to render something with the iPhone so that TEMPERATE TEMPERATE). That’s where Apple’s other great rectification comes into play: a dissipation system at the height. Last year We already saw that Apple incorporated a structure of graphite to drive the heat of the processor and distribute it better for the rear of the phone to prevent it from concentrating on a single point. It was something necessary, but we also commented that it might not be enough. Thermal strangulation tests, as evidenced: When the iPhone is demanded, it is heated and the SOC, to protect itself, enters what we know as Throttling: its frequency – and performance – low to heat less. When the iPhone returns to normal temperature, the frequency of the processor increases automatically. This generation, finally, have been given and accepted reality, incorporating a rumored steam camerawhich is one of the most advanced systems to dissipate heat. This mechanism It uses a metallic duct full of a low pressure fluid that, when changing state between liquid and vapor, transfers heat to reduce the device temperature. That is why Apple, both in the presentation … Read more

The best Apple wins and battery clock in addition to release 5G

The Apple Watch Ultra renews itself after two years of waiting. Apple has presented the Apple Watch Ultra 3the third generation of its most resistant and advanced smart watch, aimed at athletes and adventurers, or simply watch enthusiasts looking for the model with the best possible specifications. As expected, the company maintains its focus on extreme durability while introducing improvements in connectivity and performance. The great novelty comes with a larger screen, satellite connectivity and 5G support for the first time in an Apple Watch. These are the characteristics that consolidate Ultra 3 as the most complete Apple watch.

Apple has managed to reduce the frames to offer the largest screen ever seen in an Apple Watch without increasing the total size of the device. This new screen adopts technology wide-Angle Oled del Series 10which provides up to 40% more brightness when displayed from lateral angles. In addition, the improved soda frequency allows the always-on spheres to show seconds in continuous motion. An analog gesture in a native digital product. The new Waypoint sphere. Image: Apple. Image: Apple. Image: Apple. The box is built with 100% recycled titanium, according to Apple, using a 3D printing process that uses half gross materials than in previous generations. The chip in principle maintains the architecture of 64 double -core bits with four -core Neural Engine that we already know. The big difference is in the new capabilities that it unlocked, especially in connectivity and health data processing. Later we can give more details about this chip. Satellite connectivity: Never again without coverage The most revolutionary incorporation of ultra 3 is its satellite connectivitymaking the clock the first Apple capable of working completely without telephone towers. This technology allows to send emergency messages and contact rescue services from anywhere on the planet, such as what was seen on the iPhone of recent years. Complementing this novelty, ultra 3 is also the First Apple Watch with 5g supportthanks to a modem that significantly improves connection speeds in areas with 5G coverage. Apple introduces for the first time Hypertension notifications In Ultra 3, expanding the health capacities of the device. This function adds to the renovated SPO2 detection system, which is officially back after legal problems in the United States during the last year. Image: Apple. Besides, lto new waypoint sphere It shows points of interest dynamically depending on your location. The exclusive spheres of the Ultra, like this, are also one of the arguments of sale of this model against the series or the SE. As in the Series 11the ultra 3 premieres new details in sleep monitoring. Now you score each session based on the total duration and duration of each phase, something that makes sleep quality more easier for one night, going more in detail than simple duration. As for the battery, Ultra 3 now arrives at 42 hours of autonomy. It will run Watchos 26announced in June and available in a few days to update the rest of the models.

One more year, we have new iPhone. And one more year, Apple is far in generative for mobiles

Last May of Mayar Pichai, CEO of Google, mentioned the word “AI” 135 times in its inaugural talk In the Google I/O event in 2025. Everything was AI, and that absolute prominence of confirmed in the Presentation of the Pixel 10 In August. Things have been very different in the event of presentation of the iPhone 17, in which this technology has not been practically talked about. Where is Apple Intelligence? One would expect one of the most important technological companies in the world to have climbed into the AI ​​car at this point, but it is not what has happened with Apple. In it Presentation event of the New iPhone 17 As soon as there were Mentions of Apple Intelligence, a platform that not only had to arrive, but when he did proved to be much more limited than that of his competition. Real -time translation. Apple did talk about a new capacity in the Airpods pro 3: The simultaneous translation that is part of the Apple Intelligence platform and that will allow to maintain conversations in different languages ​​among several people, whether they also use those headphones – what will make them hear the translation directly in the helmets – as if not – the translation will appear on the iPhone screen. Waiting to see how it behaves, we are undoubtedly before Apple’s most outstanding novelty in its artificial intelligence functions in recent months. Delays and more delays. Apple already warned in March that its artificial intelligence options would be delayed and They would not reach 2026. Nor was there much to tell at your WWDC conferencewhere the protagonist was the new (and controversial) Liquid Glass Design Language. The iPhone 17 will not boast of AI (for the moment). All this made it practically impossible to wait for surprises in this area, but it is still surprising that while its competitors do not stop raising news with platforms such as Gemini, Apple still does not take a step forward. At the moment the AI ​​does not make a difference. The outstanding functions of AI on Android are striking, but for now they do not seem to have completely transformed the user experience and are not an argument that can make iphone users pass to Android. “Rode to search”, the real -time translation of voice calls and messages, and the striking photographic editing functions They are interesting, but it is even more that growing Gemini integration with installed applications In our Android mobiles, like Gmail. Siri is further away from Gemini. The great harmed of this situation is Siri, Apple’s voice assistant. Theoretically at this point we should have a supervitaminated version with AI, but Its development is being chaotic In an Apple that has not just found the key. That has allowed Google to have a lot of advantage with Gemini, which is already a natural substitute for Google Assistant and winning options with speed. Touch wait. Faced with this panorama, we cannot do much more to wait. Apple has promised that there will be news in Apple Intelligence in spring 2026, and it is more than likely that these novelties will reach their current devices. One thing is true: they are more than prepared for those options, and the NEW CHIP A19 PRO OF THE IPHONE 17 PRO/MAX. Privacy as in the manga. In Apple they already made it clear when presenting Apple Intelligence that one of the clear foci of this platform was to protect the privacy of users. To do this, they will take advantage of both language models that can be executed at home, without connection to the cloud, as more ambitious models that are executed in the Private cloud that Apple It already has prepared. That strategy gives rise to two questions. The first, if the functions that will offer one and the other will be able to compete with the great foundational models of Openai, Google and the rest of the competitors. The second, if that commitment to privacy will really be really differential in the race for AI.

Apple forces its users to go to ESIM

by

Apple is about to make the definitive leap towards technology esim also in the rest of the countries. Cupertino’s company has announced that will eliminate the physical sim of your new iPhone Air Recently presented, including the devices that are marketed in Spain. The decision is not far from what he was doing in the United States, because in that country it has been like this From the iPhone 14. Goodbye to physical sim. While in the United States they have been living with iPhones without SIM groove for about three years, the rest of the countries had remained out of this transition. Runrún sounded a few weeks ago when sources close to Apple confirmed That the employees of their European stores had received specific training on iPhone compatible only with ESIM. According to these sources, the training should be completed before September 5, days prior to the official presentation of the terminals. What models will be affected. Here in Spain, only the iPhone Air arrives with ESIM exclusively. However, for the rest of the family, Apple has developed versions only with Esim for Bahrain, Canada, Guam, Japan, Kuwait, Mexico, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, the United States and the Virgin Islands of the United States. This means that models of iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro They will exclusively adopt ESIM technology in the aforementioned countries. It seems that Europe is saved at the moment. In the case of the Air, which replaces the iPhone Plus in the range, it has a thickness of just 5.5 millimeters at its thinner point, so the space is significantly lower to place a sim card tray. The rest of the models will follow the same strategy for the countries mentioned by the company’s commercial decision. It only remains to know when this decision will affect us for the rest of the terminals. What Apple defends. The company argues that ESIM offers greater security than the natural, since they cannot be extracted from a lost or stolen iPhone. In addition, a single device can manage up to eight esim different simultaneously, eliminating the need to carry, exchange or mislead physical cards during trips. For Apple, it is a logical step towards the complete digitalization of its devices, a small more step towards An iPhone without physical ports. The challenge of the operators In Spain. Although the main Spanish operators such as Movistar, Vodafone and Orange They already support Esimadoption is not yet total. Some OMV operators and prepaid rates have not yet fully implemented this technology. Therefore, if you end up opting for an iPhone Air, you will have to verify in advance if your current operator is compatible with Esim. However, everything indicates that there will not be much left so that the rest of the operators who have not already done it, end up being compatible with technology. And now what. As we reviewed, users who depend on natural cards will have to plan their transition during the next months if they are going to opt for an iPhone Air. Those who change their operators frequently travel with local SIMs or use company devices with specific cards will have to take an eye to get an ESIM and continue using the device normally. The good thing is that the iPhone allows you to manage up to a maximum of eight ESIM, something very comfortable for when we travel.
