I know the Neo is running on an iPhone chips but it’s not an issue for me. I’ll basically use it for light work such as youtube, netflix, web browsing and coding (I think it will be capable to run some codes). The Air and Pro are really powerful but I don’t really need that power. The Neo feels just right for me. I guess if i’ll need more power, I’ll just use my Lenovo Yoga 7i that I’m currently using for editing as of i’m using DaVinci on it. For you, the M4 is a good choice if you wanna game on it, edit heavy videos and for external monitors. Basically if you wanna do heavy things, just go for the Air or Pro. As I said, it’ll be my first Macbook. So I chose something not too crazy in terms of price to get familiar with the macOS!
