Today I’ll be comparing two of the BEST value laptops with eachother: The 2026 MacBook Neo, and the 2025 Acer Aspire 14 AI (OLED). Students always want the best laptop for the least amount of money… And with the MacBook Neo, that seems to have been solved… But how does it compare to a similarly priced Windows Laptop…? Let’s find out ๐

hello i am from nepal and i am a studnet can you give me the maacbook neo in discount i will buy it i am in need of it.
Last year I’ve got for 800 eur the OLED Acer, but with 32gb ram and 1tb nvme. I’ve checked, as of today the 258v model wit 32gb ram , OLED and 1tb nvme is 850eur, so stil cheap and affordable. And one mote thing, on the Acer model with 32gb ram with it’s NPU and iGPU I run local 8B AI models. The Acer laptop will shine when Windows 12 get’s released with it’s 48tops NPU, so it’s even futureproof somewhat.
Did you say assfire๐ฅ
So the propaganda that no budget windows computer can compare to neo simply isn’t true.
Very annoying with no hdmi as a student and also no backlit keyboard
Why you didn’t tested battle field 6 on it ?
