Dreaming of a Touchscreen MacBook? You'd Better Be a Fan of Apple's Dynamic Island

Apple's first touch-screen MacBook Pros will reportedly include the iPhone's Dynamic Island feature on their OLED screens.

Apple's long-awaited first entries into the touchscreen laptop market could arrive as early as the fall, according to a new report from Bloomberg, with a feature familiar to iPhone owners: Dynamic Island.

The pill-shaped cutout and alert interface sits at the top of the screen and would presumably offer to people using new touchscreen MacBook Pro models the same kind of conveniences Dynamic Island brings to iPhones -- system alerts, app controls, and tracking live activities, among other features -- at the top of the screen, using a small amount of real estate.
