A week or so into having a MacBook Neo A18 8GB 13” to go along with my MacBook Pro M3 36GB 14”. So far, bouncing between the two feels really seamless. I like having the smaller size for moving around our place to do random things in different places.

The only times, so far, I can notice a difference between the two is booting it up when it is powered off. It takes a lot longer logging in and connecting to the Wi-Fi.

I thought not having the keyboard lit up would bug me more. I got the indigo one so the keyboard is a little dark at night. Daytime it is totally visible.

I’d recommend it for sure to friends/family. Neo is going to rule for traveling with. We were a little anxious traveling with the fancy Pro. This little laptop feels made to toss in a backpack and go. Bonus points for not having a massive power brick.
