Neo drives record week of first-time Mac users, Apple says

Apple CEO Tim Cook said the company had a record-breaking week for brand-new Mac users, a result AppleInsider attributes in part to the low-cost MacBook Neo (starting at $599, $499 for education). The Neo is positioned as an entry point to Apple’s lineup and a challenger to Windows, with anecdotal reports of Intel Mac users upgrading to Neo. Apple did not provide hard figures, but sources describe the Neo as the “new king of budget laptops” driving the surge for new Mac customers.

MacBook Neo: 48 hours with Apple's budget laptop and the surprising takeaways

A Tom's Guide writer spends 48 hours with the $599 MacBook Neo, praising its premium aluminum build, bright 13-inch display, and solid day-to-day performance thanks to the A18 Pro chip and 8GB RAM, while noting trade-offs like limited RAM for heavy multitasking, no True Tone, no Touch ID on the base model, two USB-C ports without MagSafe, a dim camera, and underwhelming speakers — but at its price, the Neo offers a compelling budget option that can compete with many Windows laptops for casual use.

Apple Rolls Out the $599 MacBook Neo That Actually Delivers

Apple debuts the MacBook Neo at $599 (with a $699 upgrade) as a 13-inch, all‑aluminum budget MacBook powered by the A18 Pro, packing 8GB of unified memory and 256GB of storage (512GB optional). It forgoes MagSafe and base‑model backlighting but offers a colorfully redesigned chassis, a 1080p FaceTime webcam, two USB‑C ports (one with DisplayPort), Wi‑Fi 6E, and up to 16 hours of video streaming or 11 hours of web browsing. The display is a 13-inch Liquid Retina panel with up to 500 nits brightness and no camera notch, targeting students and budget buyers to rival Chromebooks while signaling Apple’s silicon-agnostic software approach. Preorders begin now with sales starting March 11; education pricing starts at $499 for the base model.
