Apple's rumored touchscreen MacBook, expected in late 2026 to early 2027, will launch with M5 chips, skipping M6. M7 chips, already in advanced testing, may arrive by end of 2027, bringing Dynamic Island, OLED, and new design.
Apple's 13-inch MacBook Air with M5 chip, 16GB RAM, and 512GB SSD is at a new low price of $899.99 on Amazon ahead of Memorial Day. The 15-inch model is also on sale.
Vietnam-based security startup Calif claims to have developed the first public macOS kernel memory corruption exploit against Apple's M5 chip protections using Anthropic's AI-powered Mythos Preview, achieving root access in under a week.
Apple’s latest MacBook Pro with M5, M5 Pro and M5 Max chips delivers workstation-level performance in a portable package. The 14in model starts at £1,699, with the M5 Pro at £2,199 and M5 Max reaching £3,599. Reviewers praise the exceptional 120Hz mini LED screen, all-day battery life lasting up to 16-18 hours, and best-in-class keyboard and trackpad, though criticise the lack of Face ID, non-upgradable RAM, and missing wifi 7 on base M5 models.
