Traded in MBP M1 Pro 14”

I’m sure some will scoff and tell me I’m downgrading, but I don’t care. My M1 Pro battery health is getting low, and I want something a little lighter and smaller, without spending 1k on a new MBA or buying used/refurbished (still considerably more $)

I ordered the 512GB citrus, and with the trade in value of my MBP, I’ll pay around $100.

The only things I really use my laptop for are web browsing, maintaining my music library and some YouTube. I feel confident this Neo will easily handle my use case without breaking a sweat. I don’t care about screen refresh rate, Force Touch trackpad or backlit keys or 8gb of ram. I’m really excited about this laptop and I’m glad Apple is making offerings for a broader audience.
