Apple's $599 MacBook Neo has earned a 6/10 repairability score from iFixit — the highest for any MacBook in 14 years — thanks to a screw-only battery, zero adhesive tape, modular ports, and no parts pairing restrictions. The shift signals a broader industry reckoning with right-to-repair legislation spreading across multiple U.S. states and the EU, though critics note that soldered RAM and storage still prevent the Neo from matching the repairability of competitors like Framework and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops.
