The Apple MacBook Neo (13-inch, A18 Pro) is a 13-inch everyday laptop announced in 2026. Every value below is from Apple’s specification document, re-typed into our own table. A chassis is sold in many configurations, so screen, memory and graphics are listed as the options the maker offers.

Notes from the document: One USB-C port is USB 3 (10 Gb/s, DisplayPort, one external display up to 4K 60 Hz); the other is USB 2 (480 Mb/s). Touch ID comes only with the 512 GB model. Apple’s page calls the keyboard a Magic Keyboard without saying it is backlit. 8 GB of memory is the only option.

Closed, it measures 11.71 × 8.12 in (29.7 × 20.6 cm) and is 0.5 in thick. A sleeve or laptop compartment needs inner dimensions at least that large; bag makers size compartments by screen class, and chassis in one class differ, so check the numbers, not the label. We list 2 laptops in the 13-inch class: 11.71–11.97 in wide, 8.12–8.46 in deep and 2.7 lb. By starting weight the MacBook Neo is the lightest of 2.
