#12Why do all the low-end Apple laptops not have USB-C ports on the right?
That's one of the main reasons I had to get a MacBook Pro.

#148Gb. Fuck off no chance.
Not in a world of everyone shipping fat browsers with everything.
Edit: everything my kids use in their educational side is browser based or thick web apps. This is going to suck.
We shouldn't be here and 8Gb should be absolutely fine, but that is not the case.

#15An iPhone in a laptop body to be an Apple "Chromebook", I can only imagine this will be pretty popular.
Re: MacBook Neo
#16"Education customers can purchase it for $499." That is insane pricing for a brand new apple product. They will sell so many of these!
That's the magic threshold. Can't complain about the non-upgradable 8GB RAM at that price.

#171. Gawd damn, scrolling through that page full of all those bright colors with their saturation cranked up to 11, feels like I'm being flash-banged by a Cocomelon episode. No other page from Apple is like that. wtf 2. Would a used older hand-me-down Macbook Air/Pro not be better performance/value than this iPhone board in a cheap laptop shell? There was a guy here saying he bought a used Macbook Air M1 16GB for 250 E…
> 2.
To an individual consumer perhaps, but schools need to buy hundreds at a time and the second-hand market isn't really great for that.
This is basically Apple taking a bite at the Chromebook market. Interested to see what reviewers have to say.
Re: MacBook Neo
#18I think the lack of RAM kind of kills this product for general use. 8 GB of RAM with no option to get more is ridiculous in 2026. I bet they'll be very popular with whatever school districts have stuck with Apple rather than switching to Chromebooks though.

It's probably cheaper to squish everything into one small PCB on one side of the machine.

#20Why don’t they just allow MacOS on iPad Pro. It’s what people want.
