Apple's TikTok ads for the MacBook Neo are the right kind of weird
Apple's TikTok ad campaign has gone down the absurdist route to promote the MacBook Neo. It's weird, but it works.Stills from three Apple TikTok videos promoting the MacBook Neo - Image Credit: AppleIn the attention economy that is modern social media, brands have to be bold with their posts while also marketing their wares. In the case of Apple's latest activity on TikTok, it's a very rare demonstration of a company "getting it."Apple's introduction of the MacBook Neo is intended to attract a new audience to its hardware line. With a relatively low price point, it's going after consumers that are more sensitive to budgeting than ever before, where they congregate online.

UPerfect UColor O2 16-inch 3K OLED portable monitor review: Gamer specs on lightweight screen
Macworld At a glanceExpert's Rating Pros 3K (2880 x 1800 at 120Hz) OLED display Lightweight  Integrated folding travel cover and stand 16:10 screen ratio Cons No pass-through charging Our Verdict If superior color accuracy and clear visual effects are your requirement, this 16-inch 3K OLED offers you a lot of top spec for such a portable display. Price When Reviewed This value will show the geolocated pricing text for product undefined Best Pricing Today Price When Reviewed$629.99 (Currently $379.99) Best Prices Today: UPerfect UColor O2 Monitor 16-Inch Portable 3K OLED Display Retailer Price UPerfect $379.99 View Deal Price comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwide Product Price Price comparison from Backmarket The UPerfect UColor O2 is a second extended screen you can use alongside your MacBook’s own built-in display to more than double the screen space for viewing open windows at the same time—for instance, for supporting documents or apps while you’re on a video call or giving a presentation. Or you can watch a movie in more visual comfort than even a 16-inch laptop offers. Of course, you can go big—very big—with a 40-inch widescreen monitor such as the Alogic Edge, but a display that you can carry with you and hide away when it’s not required is far more flexible. This UPerfect’s UColor O2 16-inch portable monitor is straightforward to set up and offers a higher screen resolution (3K) than most portable monitors we have tested. It works with MacBook, iPad, and iPhone—or PS4, PS5, Xbox, Switch, or DVD player if you prefer. Practicalities: Portability plus protective cover/stand Weighing just 1.59lb (720g), the super-thin UColor O2 will be barely noticeable alongside your laptop in your backpack or briefcase—although you’ll need to remember to pack a USB-C cable (one is included in the box), and maybe a charger if using the screen for an extended period. It measures 14 x 9.5 x 0.26 inches (35.4 x 24.2 x 0.65cm), with the cover/stand adding little more to such a small package. The detachable Smart Cover both protects the screen in transit or during storage and doubles up as a foldable stand that is easy to setup—much like an iPad protective cover. If you’re aiming to save valuable desk space, it features a VESA-compliant bracket (75 x 75mm), allowing the monitor to be mounted on a wall, stand or desk arm, and then adjusted to your needs. Simon Jary We set up the 16-inch monitor on a stand so that it could hover above our 14-inch MacBook Pro’s own screen. UPerfect also offers a 14-inch UColor O2 version. Simple setup: How easy is the UPerfect UColor O2 to set up? The UColor O2 can connect to your device via USB-C—compatible with the MacBook’s Thunderbolt—or mini-HDMI if you prefer. Two USB-C cables—one for video signal and the other for power—are included as is a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable. Setup is simple, and you can set resolution and refresh rate as well as arrange the second monitor in the Mac’s System Settings > Displays. Simon Jary How good is the OLED display for work, gaming and video? The UPerfect UColor O2 is a 16-inch OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) panel with a 16:10 ratio. It supports a 3K resolution (2880 x 1800) at an impressive 120Hz refresh rate that eliminates stuttering and smearing and will excite gamers and video viewers. The 212ppi pixel density is appreciated. OLED is generally considered better than LCD/IPS for picture quality—because each pixel emits its own light and can turn off completely, OLED delivers truer deep blacks and more vibrant, accurate colors. Response time (1ms) is quicker, which reduces ghosting in motion. And viewing angles are better, with colors remaining accurate from nearly any angle—on LCD panels they may fade or change tint. If you leave images onscreen for prolonged periods, IPS screens might be a better choice as they don’t suffer from the image retention that can affect OLEDs with static content. IPS panels often achieve higher peak brightness, but the UColor O2 boasts 500-nit brightness that eclipses many of the portable displays we have tested. In comparison, the Plugable 15.6-inch USB-C Portable HD Display features 300 nits luminance, and the popular ViewSonic VA1655 maxes at 250 nits. The 16:10 screen ratio provides a wider vertical field of view than standard 16:9 displays, allowing you to display more content at the same time. 16:10 provides around 10% more vertical screen space, so reducing scrolling in documents and web pages. 16:9 is the industry standard for TV/movies and games, so 16:10 might be a negative for gamers despite this monitor’s other pro-games specs. A VESA mount makes it easy to add to a flexible stand.Simon Jary How is it powered, and does it support pass-through charging? OLED screens require higher power than lesser screen types, so the monitor may need to be connected to a power source. The display itself can draw power from the connected laptop, or you can connect a charger or power bank to one of the display’s USB-C ports. A 30W USB-C wall charger is included in the box but can use any Mac laptop charger if you desire. Some displays allow pass-through charging, so you don’t need a separate power cable to the MacBook, but this isn’t a feature on the UColor O2 Display. The Plugable 15.6-inch portable can pass-through up to 85W of power to the laptop. There’s also no built-in battery that would enable you to use the screen longer on the go, but this would have added considerable weight to the monitor, making it less portable. Simon Jary Is the UColor O2 worth the price? The UPerfect UColor O2 16:10 3K/120Hz Display is priced at $629.99/£473.52, but there seems to be a permanent discount—which stood at $379.99/£285.61 at the time of this review. You can buy cheaper portable monitors—such as the $239 Plugable USBC-PDMON, but you’ll sacrifice specs such as screen 3K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate and 500-nit brightness. Check out our other reviews of the best portable monitors for Mac for more options. If you prefer a much larger, less portable display—see our roundup of the best monitors for Mac. Should you buy the UPerfect UColor O2 16:10 3K Monitor? If you are after a second screen for basic productivity tasks, a cheaper but lower-resolution IPS screen such as the Plugable Portable might make more sense. If superior color accuracy and clear visual effects are your requirement, this 16-inch 3K OLED offers you a lot of top spec for such a portable display.

Apple-hating tech bros are lying to you
Macworld Before Apple unveiled the MacBook Neo on Wednesday, the consensus online was that it would cost too much. Following the shuffling of the MacBook Air lineup on Tuesday, it became clear that the Neo would slide under the Air’s previous $999 slot, maybe $700, but probably $800. It was already declared DOA. Apple instead released a $599 laptop ($499 for students) with 256GB of storage, 8GB of RAM, Magic Keyboard, multi-touch trackpad, 1080p webcam, Spatial Audio speakers, and a gorgeous aluminum design. It comes in colors we haven’t seen on a Mac in decades and is aimed at people who are otherwise comfortable using a budget Chromebook or Windows PC. Apple is going to sell a ton of them, and the people who buy one are probably going to love it. But to read through social media feeds since the announcement, you’d think Apple was charging $1,299 for an entry-level iPad. Scroll through the timeline on your social network of choice, and you’ll read all kinds of advice from experts proclaiming that the MacBook Neo is underpowered, overpriced, and underwhelming compared to similarly priced Windows laptops. It’s all lies. MacBook misinformation This post from Sankew on X sums up the general criticism of the MacBook Neo: i don't care what anyone says, but the MacBook Neo is not worth it-Only 8GB RAM-No Touch ID on the base model-No Backlit keys-No force touch trackpad, it's a diving board trackpad-Weak I/Oyou should probably get a M2, M3 or M4 MacBook Air at a discount instead. pic.twitter.com/0rld2WUHAk— Sankew (@Sankew06) March 4, 2026 I’ve read countless posts suggesting that getting an older Air is a better option. It’s terrible advice for someone looking for a budget MacBook. For one, any M2 or M3 Air is likely to be refurbished, and any M4 you find will be several hundred dollars more than the Neo. Mind you, the M2 MacBook Air is the same machine people criticized for starting at $1,099 with 256GB of storage and 8GB of RAM. And now tech influencers are recommending buying one four years later because they don’t want to admit that the MacBook Neo got everything right. Would Neo be a better machine with an A19 Pro with 12GB of RAM and a P3 display? Of course, but that’s not what the MacBook Neo is and not who it’s made for. And the tech bros on X and other platforms advising people to buy something else are simply spreading misinformation. There are real reasons to criticize the MacBook Neo. Tying Touch ID to the $699 model effectively forces people to compromise on security. The trackpad misses out on Quick Look and other Force Touch features. It’s the first MacBook since 2011 that doesn’t feature a backlit keyboard. The Indigo color should be brighter. But instead of appreciating the MacBook Neo for what it is, social media is filled with terrible advice: Foundry Any used M-series MacBook Air you can find in this price range will still have 256GB of storage, 8GB of RAM, and a 13-inch display, and it won’t be under Apple’s warranty anymore. You won’t be able to get AppleCare, and it’ll likely stop getting updates a year or two before the Neo. It might be scratched and dented. It’s a lie—there isn’t a used $600 MacBook Air on the planet that will be better than a Neo. Looking through the wrong Windows The MacBook Neo is obviously targeted at Windows and Chromebook users, particularly students. Apple has built a machine with low-end specs that performs well enough, but stands out for its design, camera, speakers, and display. There are plenty of similarly priced PCs to compare against the Neo, but few of the comparisons will be flattering. Still, you’ll find them all over your feeds. Take Windows Latest, which has 50,000 followers and nearly 500,000 views on the following tweet: This is the ASUS A14 with an OLED display, 60Hz refresh rate, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, and all-day battery life thanks to Snapdragon.Oh, and it also has five physical ports. How many do you have on the MacBook Neo?Sure, the MacBook Neo is a big deal for the price in the Apple… https://t.co/CQGEtl6cL6 pic.twitter.com/21GGwKYBMp— Windows Latest (@WindowsLatest) March 4, 2026 It sounds like a well-researched, informed takedown of the MacBook Neo. They argue that there are Windows laptops, specifically the ASUS Zenbook A14 and Galaxy Book4 Edge, with twice the RAM, better displays, more storage, and more ports for the same price. The only problem is it’s completely false—the A14 retails for $999, while the Galaxy Book 4 in question is a year old and still $900 on clearance. Here’s another one, posted as a quote-reply to a post about an HP laptop from an Apple account: more RAM, more storage, larger screen, touch screen, more pixels, numpad, more ports https://t.co/BZXiaZDp0d— Gregor 🌹🇪🇺🇦🇹 (@salingergregor) March 4, 2026 This machine with “more RAM, more storage, larger screen, touch screen, more pixels, numpad, more ports” is actually one of the best-selling Windows PCs at the MacBook Neo’s price range. It’s such a valid comparison; there was a similar one on hand at Apple’s experience event in New York. But it wasn’t to test performance; it was to show off Neo’s design, display, webcam, and audio advantages. Yes, 16GB of RAM is more than 8GB. Yes, 15.6 inches is bigger than 13 inches. But Apple didn’t build the MacBook Neo to compete spec-for-spec. The fact is, Windows laptops have had better specs than their MacBook counterparts forever. 32GB of RAM standard, 4K displays, and discrete graphics. The same influencers calling out specs on social media understand this, but they’re choosing to bend the truth for engagement. Take the bait If you were considering buying a MacBook Neo until you saw one of these posts, then it’s almost definitely the right machine for you. It wasn’t made for influencers. It’s an affordable MacBook built from the ground up for K-12 students, college kids, grandparents, and anyone who doesn’t know USB 2.0 from USB 3.2. Apple got it right. And anyone who starts breaking down specs and ports to convince you otherwise is wrong. Or just lying.

MacBook Neo makes me want an iPhone Neo
Macworld In the past I’ve wondered whether Apple is even able, let alone willing, to make and sell a genuinely cheap product. In the flurry of announcements last week, notably the launch of the MacBook Neo and iPhone 17e, I feel like I got my answer. It’s absolutely able, but more often than not, Apple simply isn’t willing. Let me begin by saying that I haven’t tried either product yet, and my opinion may change once I’ve got them into the testing labs. This isn’t a review. But on the most fundamental level, based on the top-level spec and design decisions alone, these two new products seem enormously, frustratingly contradictory. The one looks like a great value, with astute compromises made in sensible areas in order to achieve a low price tag. And the other refuses to dip properly into the budget realm, while stacking up a laundry list of limitations seemingly designed to nudge the customer into spending more on a better model. I wonder if you can tell which is which. Let’s begin, since the products were revealed in this order, with the iPhone 17e, Apple’s follow-up to last year’s unloved and lopsided iPhone 16e, which I spent a great deal of time with. The 16e replaced the popular iPhone SE as the cheapest entry in the company’s phone lineup, but was noticeably less cheap—a mid-market $599 compared to the SE’s budget $429. Despite this, the 16e was beset with small irritations, from the binned processor chip, screen notch, and single camera lens to the lack of MagSafe and, adding insult to injury, the choice of just two boring colors. The more naively optimistic of Apple’s fans may have thought the 17e would correct these issues, but it was never very likely. Things started somewhat promisingly, with the expected news that the 17e has a faster A19 processor and MagSafe, but the processor is still a binned version with fewer cores, while the 17e’s MagSafe is an older type that doesn’t get access to the latest charging speeds. It’s limited to 15W, whereas the iPhone 17 gets 25W, and even the iPhone 16 gets 22W. The largely antiquated camera setup hasn’t been meaningfully addressed, and although we get the pleasure of a third color option, it’s the feeblest and most washed-out pink I’ve seen since the iPhone 16. Whether or not you like that color in general, Soft Pink is unlikely to be your new favorite finish. I will concede that getting twice the storage as standard at no extra cost is a big improvement and much appreciated, but I simply can’t see that making up for the rest of the bad news. Or bad non-news, perhaps that should be. Now let’s turn to the MacBook Neo. This too is $599, but a $599 laptop is a very different proposition from a $599 smartphone. Right away, we can assign this to the budget segment. Chuck in the education discount and the Neo becomes a genuine budget option for students and schools, and a brilliant way to lead youngsters into the Apple ecosystem. Of course, the Neo, like the 17e, cuts corners in order to keep the price down. But on paper, they’re the right corners. They’re sensible choices driven by customer-centric thinking. And they don’t stop it from being a highly usable product with a premium feel and a solid, balanced spec list. Decisions made during the development of the iPhone 16e, and carried over into the 17e, were influenced by the need to make sure it supported Apple Intelligence. So we got a faster processor than we needed, and more RAM than we needed, and swinging cuts everywhere else. The Neo, by contrast, focuses on what the customer needs and can afford, and trims everything else. My colleague Felipe Esposito ranks those cuts according to their importance, and for many readers, the ones near the top of the list (Touch ID, RAM, Thunderbolt, Neural Accelerators) mean it won’t be the correct choice, as is perfectly understandable for any given entry in Apple’s range. But for the specific market it’s catering to, the Neo makes perfect sense. By contrast, I couldn’t work out who the iPhone 16e was for, and I don’t feel a lot more optimistic about the 17e. What would it look like if we applied that same philosophy to the iPhone? An “iPhone Neo” would likely prioritize the camera, the battery life, and the design, since those are the things most people care about, and make sacrifices in the processor and screen size. Slimness would be a very low consideration. And AI capabilities would be non-existent. It would be almost the opposite of the iPhone 17e. And it would be great. You may have heard the phrase “Apple tax” being bandied about in tech circles, but the term has never really been accurate. Samsung and Huawei make $1,000 phones, too. The difference is that, unlike those other companies, Apple doesn’t attempt to sell into every market, and has never had a lot of interest in the bargain basement. The company absolutely can make a budget product when it wants to, as we can see. It’s just that most of the time, it chooses not to. Foundry Welcome to our weekly Apple Breakfast column, which includes all the Apple news you missed last week in a handy bite-sized roundup. We call it Apple Breakfast because we think it goes great with a Monday morning cup of coffee or tea, but it’s cool if you want to give it a read during lunch or dinner hours too. Trending: Top stories Michael Simon met MacBook Neo. And now realises that everything he knows is a lie. You don’t have to buy the most expensive Apple products, says the Macalope. Because Apple does cheap better than most companies do good. Even Apple knows the new iPad Air is a worthless upgrade. It’s time for an M5 deep dive with Jason Cross. In other words, what the hell is a super core? “We don’t know how to make a $500 computer that’s not a piece of junk,” Steve Jobs said in 2008. Apple finally figured out how to make a budget laptop, and it only took 18 years. The worst thing about the iPhone 17e? It’s not pink enough. Podcast of the week Are you experienced?
