MacBook Neo、WindowsノートよりWindows 11 アプリが高速?Parallels が比較結果を公開 | ソフトアンテナ

Appleは先日、599ドルから購入できるMacのエントリーモデル「MacBook Neo」を発表しました。8GB RAMという控えめな仕様から「本当に使えるのか」と疑問視する声があるなか、ParallelsがMacBook Neoの実力を

The Macbook Neo gaming benchmarks YouTube videos are pure comedy. Watching people celebrate 30 FPS at 720p in Cyberpunk is wild when we have handhelds and even Android phones pushing more efficient numbers. With a non-upgradeable 8 GB RAM ceiling, this isn't a good machine. It is a ticking clock for a landfill.

There are better ways of spending $600+. Like a used Thinkpad T14 Gen 3 or 4 that lets you change your storage, RAM, and even repair other parts of the computer.

The Neo's memory bandwidth caps at 60 GB/s. In case you don't understand just how small that is, even older entry level PC's have caps above 400 GB/s. It is slower than a 2020 Macbook M1.

Hardware sovereignty starts with specs that can actually survive the remainder of the decade.

#JustJosh is kinda right, the MacBook Air M2/M3/M4 for $799 es better than the #MacBookNeo.

The problem is that outside USA it's difficult, almost impossible, to find a #MacBookAir for $100 more, the difference is often bigger.

So... yeah, the MacBook Neo is the best laptop to get unless you can find a MacBook Air for less than 15% price difference.

MacBook Neo Review by an Actual Laptop Reviewer

YouTube

Welp, it appears the battery on my 2019 #Apple #MacBook is giving up the ghost, & the Apple Store tells me Apple won't source a replacement for a box this old. (Because of course not.)

Far as I know the box is still useable—as long as it's tethered to the wall.

A new one wouldn't be unmanageably expensive, but <weary sigh>

(Yes, yes, I know, #Linux, but that's not a straightforward conversion. I'm already exploring that option.) 1/2

I love the Midnight finish on the MacBook Air, I just wish Apple would offer it on the MacBook Pro.

I’m also a fan of the classic white MacBook. It would be nice to see it revived with modern MacBook Pro internals.

Dev runs data-center AI model on MacBook -- and it changes everything

A developer just pulled off running a massive data-center AI model on a MacBook Pro. And it may show Apple is winning the AI race after all.
