Apple Reportedly Nears Mass Production of M5 MacBook Pros, Airs and New 27‑Inch Displays

The update is expected to be a silicon-driven refresh, with a broader OLED redesign targeting late 2026.

M5 MacBooks and new Apple monitors are around the corner.

Overview

  • Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports that 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros (codenamed J714 and J716) and two MacBook Airs (J813 and J815) are approaching mass production.
  • Two external monitors around 27 inches (J427 and J527) are also nearing production, with at least one widely expected to refresh the Studio Display.
  • Release timing is guided to the end of 2025 through the first quarter of 2026, with an October debut viewed as unlikely and availability by March considered plausible.
  • The next MacBook Pro models are expected to focus on M5, M5 Pro and M5 Max chips rather than major industrial-design changes.
  • Larger MacBook Pro updates — including OLED displays, a touchscreen, a thinner chassis and M6 chips on a newer process — are reported for late 2026.
