SUMMARY

The Apple MacBook Neo is a well-built, portable budget laptop that utilizes an iPhone processor, making it surprisingly capable for common photo and video editing tasks. While it cannot match the performance of more powerful MacBooks, it provides excellent value with its build quality, macOS, and all-day battery life. However, its limited ports, including only two USB-C ports (one USB 2.0), and lack of an SD card reader may require additional accessories for photographers and videographers.
