If you’ve ever shopped for a "cheap" MacBook, your options were either waiting for a holiday sale, snagging a previous-gen model, or gambling on a refurbished one. That all changes with the $599 MacBook Neo. It’s not packed with every premium MacBook feature, but it’s built for the basics, such as web surfing, streaming videos, and even light gaming.
First-time Mac users or anyone on a budget who doesn’t need a powerhouse will do well with the Neo. But if you want a more premium device without shelling out for something like the MacBook Pro M5 Pro, the new MacBook Air M5, starting at $1,099, is absolutely worth considering.
