Late October update: the OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro
On October 28, 2026, BGR, Gizmodo and MacRumors reported a new MacBook Pro with an OLED touchscreen. The 14-inch M5 Pro starts at $2,899 and the 16-inch at $3,399, with shipping reported from November 6. See the OLED MacBook Pro price page.
BGR and Gizmodo also said a 14-inch M6 MacBook Pro with a mini-LED display was announced on October 27 at $1,999. MacRumors said the older mini-LED models were discontinued, which does not match BGR, so confirm what Apple is selling today on its store before you buy.
What changed since our last update
We rebuilt this page. The older version carried prices we couldn't source, so we removed them. Everything below comes from the dated sources listed.
What the source reports on MacBook Pro 14 pricing
The M4 has been replaced, so the price question is mostly about the M5 and refurbished stock.
- M5 models: Macworld (July 9, 2026) gave the 14-inch M5 (1TB) at a $1,999 MSRP against $1,699 before, with Amazon at $1,886.31 ($112.69 off). The M5 Pro (1TB) was $2,499 against $2,199, with Amazon at $2,374. The M5 Max (2TB) was $4,099 against $3,599, with Amazon at $3,844.73.
- Why prices rose: the article said the base 14-inch M5 was $1,599 until a March 2026 change removed the 512GB model and made 1TB the base at $1,699, then Apple raised prices in June 2026, taking it to $1,999.
- Refurbished M4: it listed an Apple Certified Refurbished 14-inch M4 Pro (1TB/24GB) at $1,949, down $360 from $2,399, and said refurbished M4 MacBook Pros were up to $260 off. It listed older M4 prices of $1,599 (512GB) and $1,799 (1TB/16GB).
- This is a single source, and some of its figures were its own comparisons. Check Apple's store and the Amazon listing.
The free Zroppix extension puts that history on the Amazon listing itself: the last 90 days of price for the exact version you have open, a BUY or WAIT verdict based on where today's price sits in that range, and an alert if you would rather wait. No account is needed to see the history.
Is the listing near $1,886, or near $1,999?
Open the MacBook Pro on Amazon with Zroppix and check the chip, the storage and the 90-day price range before you pay.
How to tell whether today's price is fair
We don't publish a price chart or a predicted price for the MacBook Pro 14-inch on this page, because we can't back one up with recorded data here. What we can give you is a method that works for any product, and the free Zroppix extension that applies it for you on the Amazon page.
- Confirm the exact version. Model year, size, colour and bundle can each change the price. Read the title and the variant selector, not just the headline.
- Open the price history. Use the Zroppix extension (90-day history on Amazon pages) or another tracker such as CamelCamelCamel or Keepa. Where Amazon shows its own price history link, use that too.
- Compare today's price with the lowest in the window. At or near the low is a fair price. A big "percent off" badge on its own proves little, as our guide to sale badges explains.
- Check who sells it. Amazon or the brand is safest. Compare against the manufacturer's own site, which may run separate promotions.
- Set an alert if the price isn't right yet, and decide on your own timeline. Nobody can tell you what the price will do next.
Work out the real price before you buy
- Chip and storage: M5, M5 Pro and M5 Max differ by $500 or more. Compare the same chip and storage.
- M4 stock: the article found no current US deal on a new M4, so an M4 listing may be old stock or a third-party seller.
- Refurbished: Apple Certified Refurbished includes Apple's warranty. Check the terms.
- Seller: check that Amazon or Apple is the seller.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Comparing the M4 with the M5.
- Missing the storage change. Older models have half the storage.
- Paying a third-party markup.
- Trusting a single source.
