macOS adapts its controls for touch on the new MacBook Pro

Apple detailed how macOS handles finger input on its first touchscreen Mac, the new MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR display: menu items and window controls enlarge under a fingertip, the Dynamic Island pulls down into a floating widget, and a swipe up reveals the Dock. The system translates touch into clicks, so existing apps work without developer updates. Pre-orders start at $2,899 for the 14-inch model and $3,399 for the 16-inch, with launch on November 6.
