SAVE $9.01: As of April 15, the Apple MacBook Neo base model is on sale for $589.99 at Amazon. While that may not be a huge discount from its $599 list price, it's the best price we've seen since its March launch.

Apple's new budget laptop, which just launched last month, is already selling in droves. It's hard to pass up a MacBook that only costs $599, after all. If you haven't already secured one for yourself, you can now pick one up for even less.
It ain't much, but at just $589.99 at Amazon, the Apple MacBook Neo base model (A18 Pro, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) is officially down to its best price ever. We saw the budget-friendly MacBook drop to $595 during the Big Spring Sale, but this is the first time it's broken through the $590 threshold.
Mashable's tech editor tested the MacBook Neo and loved it. "If I were a Windows laptop that cost under $1,000, I'd be shaking in my boots," he writes. It's not meant to be a hefty work laptop for professionals. Instead, it's designed for everyday tasks like streaming and web browsing — and for those tasks, it performs seamlessly (just as fast as an M4 MacBook Air). It has the same premium aluminum build as any other MacBook, but runs on an iPhone chip: the A18 Pro (same as the iPhone 16 Pro).

Other specs include a 13-inch Liquid Retina display with a 60Hz refresh rate and 500 nits of brightness, WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 6, 8GB of RAM, two USB-C ports, a MagSage charging port, and a headphone jack. And for those concerned about the 8GB of RAM, Mashable's reviewer notes that "it performed surprisingly well." For students or those looking for a second laptop for non-work, the Neo is hard to beat.
