MacBook Neo

I don’t think a meaningful share of Apple’s laptop volume comes from the high-end 64GB Max SKUs. Most of it is likely driven by the value and mid tiers (Air/Neo), which aren’t really aimed at running local LLMs. Apple’s strength right now is that they’ve built a very well balanced entry level produc

Not OP, but I just bought the iPhone 17 and a Neo. I'm moving away because I'm tired to death of Windows pushing Copilot. Bought the Neo to dip my toes into the apple ecosystem and I wanted the phone to link it all together. I have an old laptop that I put Linux on and it's been nice, but I also wor

Likely not, the Neo has an iPhone processor. There's nothing stopping a nicer iPhone from being able to dock and act as your computer except for software. Apple doesn't want me having my mother plug the iPhone she needs anyway in to use as her computer though, because they'd rather sell a Neo in add

Ok, Apple did a good job, but a big part of it is how much Microsoft keeps on shitting the bed and Qualcomm still bets on them after failing to deliver a proper Windows on ARM story for over a decade, that’s the definition of insanity. This failure will result in the Macbook neo destroying the low e

I would buy the laptop on you’re own if you aren’t getting a cci grand. The laptops are decently more expensive through the student store compared to buying directly from Apple, Best Buy, etc. Especially around August time there will be significant sales when buying directly from a store, and you ca

My dad brought home the purple iMac G3 in 1999 and I’ve been (happily) stuck in the ecosystem since then. I’ve gotten a a 2003 12” PowerBook G4, a 2008 MacBook Pro and a 2018 Mac Mini. I have to use Windows for work, it’s terrible and I’m not sure why anymore. Everything is cloud/web based. We aren’

The iPad wasn’t a laptop killer. Wasn’t supposed to be. It was supposed to be a better than the low end windows junk out there. And it still is for surfing the web, Web 2.0 apps, apps in general, etc. Those windows laptops weren’t optimized for the low ram, low end processors and battery. And you ca

I work in Higher Ed, and used to work in a variety of locations. Just this WEEK I’ve had two previous colleagues text me and ask if such and such laptop is good for their kid going to college this next year. I only have 40% Apple blood in my veins and I STILL just couldn’t NOT recommend the Neo outr

Wenn du auf dem Laptop wirklich nur mitschreiben willst, MacBook Neo + iPad. Wenn es um die Zusammenarbeit mehrerer Geräte aus einem Ökosystem geht, ist niemand besser als Apple. Wenn du die 1300€ Budget voll ausreizen willst, dann das 13er MacBook Air statt dem Neo. Convertibles kannst du als mobil

Microsoft can never compete with the Neo. They have a laptop made by several different companies - software, processor, shell, screen etc all have their own companies who need their slice of the pie. Also on top you have all of the advertising on windows and companies paying subsidies to be up front
