Who should buy the MacBook Neo?

For those that prefer macOS over Windows, the MacBook Neo is a very compelling option. At just $599.99 (the most affordable MacBook to date!), it delivers amazing build quality and reliable performance without major compromises. Inside, you’ll find an A19 Pro chip with 6 CPU cores, a 16-core Neural Engine, 5-core GPU, 8GB of memory, and a 256GB SSD. That’s plenty of power for the day-to-day stuff like browsing, emailing, writing papers, streaming, and so on. The 13-inch Liquid Retina display is also bright and sharp, with a resolution of 2408×1506 and a brightness level of 500 nits. The alumin

Who should buy the MacBook Neo (2026)?

Should You Buy the MacBook Pro?

The 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models feature M5, M5 Pro, and M5 Max chips for super fast performance, with mini-LED displays, MagSafe fast charging, multiple ports, and more. Apple refreshed the base 14-inch MacBook Pro in October 2025, and updated the higher-end 14-inch and 16-inch machines in March 2026. Given that all MacBook Pro variants have been updated recently, now is a good time to buy, but be aware we are expecting another refresh in 2026. A high-end MacBook Pro with an OLED touchscreen display is coming in late 2026. The entry-level 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro is priced start

How about everything else?

The shortage situation is noteworthy because it’s rare when shopping for Apple products; generally, the company’s control of its supply chain means that if it wants to sell you something, it can do so on whatever terms it chooses. That’s mostly still true. So far, the chaos affecting Apple’s headless desktops is mostly not touching the rest of the lineup. Ship times for the vast majority of MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and iMac models are mostly the same as they were a month ago, with a handful of basic configurations available for delivery the day after they’ve been ordered and typical-ish week-
