MacBook Neo 3 Months Later… I Pushed It Too Far

I used the MacBook Neo for almost 3 months, and this tiny $600 MacBook surprised me way more than I expected. In this video, I break down how the MacBook Neo fits into my real workflow as a filmmaker and content creator — not as a MacBook Pro replacement, but as a small, lightweight travel Mac that I pushed much harder than most people probably will. I tested it on planes, in hotel rooms, with an external monitor, for everyday work, light editing, creator tasks, and travel production. The MacBook Air may still be the safer all-around choice for most people, but for my setup, the MacBook Neo has become the travel laptop I actually wanted.
