Apple appears to be preparing to launch its new MacBook Pro M5 Pro and M5 Max laptops in the coming weeks. While the company has not officially announced the release, recent software updates suggest a possible date.
The Apple Creator Studio subscription bundle, announced this week, will include Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Motion, Compressor, and other creative apps. It will be available on the App Store starting Wednesday, January 28, 2026, for £12.99 per month or £129 per year.
Many analysts see this as a hint that Apple may reveal the new MacBook Pro models at the same time. These laptops are designed for professionals and creatives, and they are expected to take full advantage of the M5 Pro and M5 Max Apple Silicon chips.
The M5 chipset already powers devices like the Apple Vision Pro, iPad Pro, and the current 14-inch MacBook Pro. The new M5 Pro and M5 Max variants will offer higher performance, especially for creative workloads.
Apple often launches hardware midweek, and January 28 falls on a Wednesday, making it a likely day for a press-release-style announcement rather than a large event. Supply chain reports also suggest the premium MacBooks could arrive in the first quarter of 2026.
For now, consumers and creative professionals should watch for Apple’s official announcement, as the January 28 date could mark the debut of the long-awaited MacBook Pro M5 Pro and M5 Max.
