Apple has introduced a new MacBook model called the MacBook Neo, offering a more budget-friendly option starting at £599, which is £500 cheaper than the latest M5-powered MacBook Air. Despite the lower price, the MacBook Neo maintains a premium look and feel with features like a sleek aluminum design, a vibrant 13-inch Liquid Retina display, a long-lasting 16-hour battery life, and a comfortable keyboard ideal for daily use. Buyers can select from four attractive colors: Silver, Citrus, Indigo, and Blush.
To keep costs down, Apple equipped the MacBook Neo with the A18 Pro chip, typically used in their smartphones. This setup still provides ample power for tasks such as web browsing, video editing, photo retouching, and streaming content on the go.
Sky has introduced a contract deal for the MacBook Neo, offering it at £12.50 per month along with a SIM card providing 100MB of data. The deal requires a 48-month contract and a £24 upfront payment, totaling £624 over the term, slightly more than purchasing the laptop outright.
The £12.50 monthly price applies to the 256GB model without a Touch ID feature. For the 512GB version with Touch ID, the monthly cost is £15.
In addition to Sky, the MacBook Neo is available at major retailers like Argos, Currys, and Amazon.
