States "constant PWM flickering & slow response times" but there is nothing about the display or PWM in the review. Mishap?

The older M4 Pro review also stated the exact same thing, but in fact the PWM frequency was almost 20,000 Hz which is a complete non-issue even for the most PWM sensitive people. Compare that to the flurry of new Windows OLED laptops (Samsung Book6, Dell XPS, etc) that use OLED with 240 Hz PWM flicker ... some of them claim the display refresh rate goes up to 160 Hz, so higher than half the actual panel flicker, that's bound to bother plenty of people.

Battery

QuoteThe result is still excellent though and clearly superior to most Windows alternatives, only Samsung's Galaxy Book6 Ultra can keep up despite the much smaller battery.

Every single Panther Lake laptop has better battery efficiency for every day tasks like wifi web surfing. The results shown in the article are misleading because of the smaller batteries in windows laptops. For example, the Dell XPS 14" has an 80 Wh battery and gives a 19.6h of wifi surfing, while the 2026 M5 Pro has a 99.6 Wh battery and gives the same 19.6h of wifi surfing ...

Panther lake laptops without RTX GPUs also weigh considerably less. The Samsung Book6 Pro is 1.49 Kg compared to 2.1 Kg. But yeah, Windows laptops throttle and are also power limited to begin with.

Their point is still true though, I honestly don't know anyone who edits on 8 GB. Maybe smartphone users. But anyone who is serious about editing isn't doing that.

Ok, BELIEVE IT. First off Apple iPhones and iPads have FAR LESS RAM then the NEO does. Got it? LOL!!!

Those of us that edit/process STILL IMAGES generally have zero use for large amount of RAM. Period.

Granted those that are doing HUGE VIDEO stuff MIGHT NEED/REQUIRE huge amounts of RAM but lets get REAL HERE DUDE - they would NOT be shopping for a "Neo" in the first place!! LOL!

You kids crack me up - seem to think that "everything" has to be a portable workstation requiring oodles of threads&memory&storage.

Generally while many/most CONSUMERS (IE: read non-professional home users) have migrated much if not ALL their "computer" needs to their Cell Phone's or iPad's nether of those can run "desktop applications" which is where a laptop such as a MacBook-Neo comes into play.

Entered with a 2013 era 13" MBP i5(2C/4T)/8GB/256GB. :)
