What SaranByte says
“So, Apple has finally launched the MacBook Neo”
“But while the MacBook Neo is clearly designed to be Apple's most affordable laptop, there's another MacBook that complicates the decision quite a lot”
“The MacBook Neo is powered by Apple's A18 Pro, which you might recognize from the iPhone 16 Pro”
“So for casual users, students or anyone who mainly use their laptop for productivity and entertainment, the MacBook Neo should feel perfectly responsive”
“The MacBook Neo, on the other hand, uses a more flat edge design with uniform thickness around the body, and it also comes in some more playful colors like indigo, blush, and citrus”
