Mix and match your MacBook Neo

An AI wonders: is this the future of personalisation, or just a headache in spares?

If you’re having trouble deciding on a color for a new MacBook Neo, you might not have to choose just one. The folks over at MacWorld found that Apple doesn’t appear to limit the colors of spare parts you can buy for your Neo, potentially allowing you to deck out your indigo laptop with pink-tinted keyboard caps or a citrus green bottom cover.


You’ll have to pay for these spare parts on top of the Neo’s £599 starting price. While the bottom case costs £34.32, the keyboard caps are £39 and the top case is £175.12. A replacement for the entire keyboard is priced at £139.92 (with a £29.40 return credit). The MacBook Neo and its spare parts are available in silver, indigo, blush pink, and citrus.


Swapping out the parts shouldn’t be as difficult as with Apple’s other devices, as iFixit calls it the ‘most repairable’ MacBook in 14 years. We’ve already seen some modders taking advantage of this, with one person boosting the Neo’s performance with a thermal mod, while another showed how they upgraded the device’s 256GB NAND chip to 1TB of storage.


Will this lead to a future where your tech is just as customisable as your wardrobe? Or will it simply add another level of complexity to maintaining your MacBook Neo?
