On an earnings call in late April, Apple's CEO Tim Cook said that customer response to the MacBook Neo was "off the charts," and the popularity of the laptop has reportedly led the company to significantly boost production. Apple supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo this week said he believes that MacBook Neo shipments to Apple were doubled from an initial target of 5 million units to 10 million units in 2026 at some point after the laptop launched in March.
And neo is good enough for basic things like browsing the web, writing documents, email and such. Even a mobile chip is good enough for that, and has been for about 20 years already. Most people don’t need that much, so neo is perfectly fine for them.
I was playing with editing video on it. Surprisingly capable as long as you aren’t going crazy with tons of effects and such.
Some mad lads and lasses also edit videos on a phone. If you’ve never touched anything better, you don’t even feel the pain that much.
Yup. It’s totally good for that. I’m used to editing on high end Avid systems (yes feature films), and while I wouldn’t want to do that on a Neo, cutting home movies or stuff for school would be cake.
