The MacBook Neo Is the Best Budget Laptop You Can Buy Today

Apple launched the MacBook Neo starting at $599 with a 256GB base model and a 512GB option for $100 more.

The Neo uses a 13-inch 2408×1506 display at 500 nits, covers sRGB, and renders 1 billion colors.

The laptop has an aluminum shell, four color finishes, two USB-C ports (one at 10Gbps), a 1080p webcam, mechanical trackpad, and ships with a 20W charger.

Apple positions the Neo as a budget laptop that retains many features of pricier MacBooks.
