0
Join the Beyond the Box cafe takeover! Get hands-on with the MacBook Neo at Scout’s Honor, Uptown BGC, and catch the next stop at The Matcha Tokyo, Opus Mall.

The digital landscape just got a lot more colorful.
Today, April 16, marks a special milestone for tech enthusiasts in Manila as Beyond the Box kicks off the NEO Takeover. I spent the afternoon at Scout’s Honor, Uptown BGC, where the beloved cookie bar transformed into a sleek tech hub. It was the perfect setting to get hands-on with the highly anticipated MacBook Neo.

A Fresh Burst of Color
The MacBook Neo isn’t just about performance; it’s a style statement. While we’ve seen the classic Silver, the real stars at the Scout’s Honor event were the new Blush, Indigo, and Citrus finishes. Seeing them in person reveals a vibrant yet sophisticated palette that feels incredibly fresh for 2026.
What’s Under the Hood?
Designed for the modern go-getter, the MacBook Neo strikes a perfect balance between portability and power:
  • Chipset: Powered by the A18 Pro chip, delivering snappy performance for multitasking.
  • Display: A stunning 13-inch Liquid Retina display with 500 nits of brightness.
  • Design: Ultra-thin and lightweight at just 2.7 lbs, featuring a notchless display and a color-matched keyboard.
  • Battery Life: Up to 16 hours of video streaming, perfect for long cafe work sessions.
Didn’t Catch the BGC Takeover?
If you missed the 11 AM to 4 PM window at Scout’s Honor today, don’t worry, the takeover continues! Tomorrow, April 17, 2026, the NEO Takeover moves to its second location:

Next Stop: The Matcha Tokyo, Opus Mall
  • Date: April 17, 2026

It’s another chance to experience the Neo line while enjoying some of the best matcha in the city.
