Apple is reportedly planning to double the order quantities for its upcoming MacBook Neo, according to component suppliers. The second-generation model is anticipated to outperform the original in terms of sales, with a shipment forecast of 16 million units in 2027, compared to the 8 million units of the 2026 release. DigiTimes cites supply chain sources as the source of this shipment forecast.
The comparison is not a straightforward doubling, as the MacBook Neo's 2026 shipments spanned ten months, while the 2027 forecast covers a full year. The initial launch of the MacBook Neo was reportedly a massive success for Apple, with CEO Tim Cook describing it as the best launch week ever for first-time Mac customers. The model's popularity led to a doubling of production, causing suppliers to scramble to meet the increased demand.
The MacBook Neo is also credited with contributing to Apple's 13% year-over-year increase in PC shipments during Q2, when the global market saw a slump. For the second-generation model, industry expectations are for it to incorporate the A19 processor, potentially 12GB of memory, and a broader color range.
