Quote from: Fordon on Today at 15:54:47I don't agree on "Chromebook-level of computer". I'm not an apple user/fan, but this has M1 level performance on passive cooling, 500nits screen, metal chassis, non-membrane keyboard and speakers better than in 90% of windows laptops. It's limited only by the amount of ram, but having previous experience with macbooks - MacOS handles small amount of ram much-much better than windows. Go try any Chromebook for real before comparing - they are mostly plastic trash with Intel Pentium CPUs. While the "premium" Chromebooks cost 800$+. It's just childish no-argument hate for Neo. I hope that Neo will shake the windows laptops market and we'll finally see some quality as a standard.

The Chromebook comparison is faulty in the sense where the Macbook Neo is low-end hardware (by notebook standards) vs Chromebooks run web apps and have very little local (fast) storage, like thin clients.

The Neo should be compared to notebooks in the same price range that run Windows, and yes they are absolutely terrible: slow-poke chips, snail-like SSDs, but mostly terribly dim screens of questionable quality that will wreck your eyesight.

I recently looked at notebooks in the $400-500 range for one of my aunts, I ended up "recommending" some generic piece of plastic with a HP logo on it; it runs, it allows her to do her banking and Facebook stuff, but really it's the type of piece of junk nobody will be surprised to find dead one morning.

PC makers have gotten away with these crap notebooks for too long and thought nobody would come challenge them on this turf.

I'm not a fan of the Neo and I'm not even the target audience for this, but Apple is certainly going to wake the others up with this product.

Yes, most of not all first releases are paid reviews (as is on this very site), but what you said is technically speaking incorrect. Also, whi.tra. can be trash w/o being rich.

It can play many, but not going to be able to play recent titles at high settings and high resolution, obviously. Still, what the Neo can do [at its price] is amazing.

What games 🤣🤣🤣

It's F@#%^ing Chromebook level of computer!!!!
I hate this paid reviews, where every single reviewer just sing most beautiful songs about apple products for apple paychek!!!!
This notebook is garbage!!!! Demographically targeting poor blacks ,Hispanics and white trash pretending rich!!!!!
