Apple is releasing five new products this Friday, November 6, following pre-orders that opened last week, including its first touchscreen MacBook Pro models. The iPad mini starts at $699 with an OLED display and A20 Pro chip. The iMac starts at $1,499 with an M6 chip. The 14-inch MacBook Pro with M6 chip starts at $1,999. The 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with OLED touchscreen start at $2,899 and $3,399 respectively. All five products remain available to pre-order, with generally good shipping dates for launch-day delivery. The only exception is the base 14-inch touchscreen MacBook Pro, with Space Black shipping in 3-4 weeks and Silver in 7-10 business days.
Apple continues its busy 2026 product cycle, following recent closures and upcoming software updates. With two hardware launch dates still to come in November and new smart home accessories running into December, the company shows no signs of slowing before the end of the year. Holiday shoppers should note the November 21 closing of the Apple Festival Place store in Basingstoke, England.
This launch marks a significant expansion for Apple's hardware lineup, introducing OLED touchscreen technology to the MacBook Pro family for the first time. The new A20 Pro chip in the iPad mini signals Apple's push into premium tablet computing, while the M6 chip across the desktop and portable lineup represents a major performance upgrade. Pricing starts range from $699 for entry-level mobile computing to over $3,000 for professional workstation configurations.
