Expected to be replaced at the Apple October 2026 Mac and iPad launch (October 27, 2026) by the MacBook Pro with OLED touchscreen.

Should you buy it now?

Not yet. A newer MacBook Pro M5 is likely soon.

MacBook Pro with M5, M5 Pro or M5 Max is extremely capable, but a redesigned model with a touchscreen is rumored for late 2026. If your current laptop still works, waiting could get you a much bigger upgrade for the same money.
