Apple is reportedly preparing to launch its first touchscreen and OLED MacBook Pro at an Apple event on October 28, according to a new report. The report says Apple has begun sending invites to selected media representatives. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman says the event is now taking place in Los Angeles on October 28, after previously reporting it would happen a day earlier.

The event is expected to include several new products. Apple is anticipated to reveal new 14-inch and 16-inch touchscreen MacBook Pro models with OLED displays, a new iPad mini with an OLED screen, and a new iMac along with entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro models powered by the M6 chip. The touchscreen MacBook Pro will likely draw the most attention, although recent reporting has suggested expectations should be tempered regarding a much slimmer design. The machines are still expected to be significantly lighter than current models, and will feature a Dynamic Island replacing the notch. They are expected to be powered by M5 Pro and M5 Max chips.

The new iPad mini is believed to have its FaceTime camera relocated for landscape rather than portrait use, along with a revamped speaker system. The new iMac and entry-level MacBook Pro models are expected to keep an unchanged design and receive only a chip update.
