Imagine for a moment to be able to fold your MacBook in two as a book. This dream could soon come true if we believe the latest predictions of analyst Jeff Pu. In a research note for GF Securities, it details the potential Apple roadmap for its future foldable devices.
According to Jeff Pu, the apple firm would work on two aircraft that would come into mass production in the second half of 2026. The first would bea folding iPhone,But it is especiallyThe second that draws attention.

While we could expect that such a device is running under iPados, the analyst thinks that'he will rather embark macOS. A daring prediction that implies the arrival of a touch screen mac. What revolutionize the range as we know it.
Towards a tactile mac next year?
The idea of a touch screen mac is dreaming but also raises questions. Few rumors evoke a launch as close as to 2026 for such a product. Mark Gurman de Bloomberg said that theChanges of design to come with iOS 19And MacOS 16 would prepare the ground for foldable devices and tactile macs. But without further details.
Jeff Pu rely on a recent report by the Wall Street Journal evoking this 18.8 -inch device like a laptop. But from there to deduce the use of macos, there is a step. A certain caution therefore remains of putting on this prediction.
This does not prevent it from giving free rein to our imagination. If Apple were to launch a foldable macbook under macOS from 2026,It would be a small revolution.
