Apple MacBook Neo
The MacBook Neo is Apple stepping into a truly budget-friendly laptop category, starting at $599 (and $499 for students), which is honestly kind of mind-blowing. It’s a 13-inch Liquid Retina machine powered by the A18 Pro, and from the quick hands-on it feels like it could be a legit everyday Mac—now we just need to see how far it can really go in real-world tests.
