Satechi, based in California, has announced the MacBook Neo Collection, a set of accessories built around Apple's MacBook Neo. It consists of three products: the USB-C Snap Hub, which plugs into both USB-C ports from the side and expands them to six connections; the OntheGo 5-in-1 Multiport Adapter, which mounts magnetically to the lid; and the Slim EX Wireless Mouse. All three come in finishes matched to the laptop's four colors.
Four colors matched to the laptop
The common thread across the collection is a palette of Citrus, Blush, Indigo, and Silver. Each finish is matched to a MacBook Neo body color, and on the 5-in-1 adapter even the braided cable is color-matched. It is a small thing, but it matters to anyone who picked their machine by color.
The MacBook Neo ships with a limited number of ports, so an external display, an SD card, or a USB drive all require an adapter. These three products offer two different answers to that gap, plus a mouse in matching colors.
The USB-C Snap Hub sits flush against the side
The USB-C Snap Hub uses a dual connector that plugs into both of the MacBook Neo's USB-C ports at once. It is designed around the machine's asymmetric port layout, so once attached it sits flush against the side with almost no step. At 10mm thick, it is meant to stay attached when the laptop goes into a bag.
It adds six connections: HDMI output at up to 4K/60Hz, USB-A and USB-C at 5Gbps, SD and microSD readers rated up to 104MB/s under UHS-I, and USB-C pass-through charging at up to 45W. The trade is straightforward — it occupies both ports, then hands one back as a power input.
The two connectors have different jobs. The primary one carries data and video, while the second is dedicated to power. The SD and microSD slots take cards in opposite orientations, so it is worth checking the diagram printed on the hub before inserting one. The body combines two-tone aluminum with a soft-touch finish.
The OntheGo 5-in-1 Multiport Adapter attaches to the lid
The OntheGo 5-in-1 takes a different shape: a puck measuring 65mm across and 22mm thick. It rides on the lid magnetically and connects through an integrated braided USB-C cable that pulls out when needed. It also attaches to the back of a MagSafe-compatible iPhone.
It offers five connections: HDMI at up to 4K/60Hz, USB-A and USB-C at 5Gbps, a UHS-I SD card reader, and USB-C pass-through charging at up to 60W. There is no microSD reader, but it passes 15W more power than the Snap Hub. That said, the MacBook Neo itself charges at up to 30W, so the extra headroom matters mainly when other devices are attached. Ethernet is not included.
One detail deserves attention: the magnets. The MacBook Neo's aluminum body is not ferromagnetic, so a 3M adhesive ring has to be applied to the lid once. Two rings are included, and the hub snaps to the same spot every time. The flip side is that using it without the ring is not really part of the design.
The quiet mouse, and pricing
The third product, the Slim EX Wireless Mouse, is an existing model now offered in the four Neo colors. It has an aluminum body and three connection paths — two Bluetooth channels plus a 2.4GHz USB-C receiver. It recharges via USB-C, takes a removable battery, and uses quiet switches. Shared spaces and libraries are the intended context, and it sells for 29.99 USD (about 4,900 yen).
The USB-C Snap Hub and the OntheGo 5-in-1 are both priced at 44.99 USD (about 7,300 yen). The Snap Hub wins on port count, while the 5-in-1 is more portable and works with an iPhone as well. Both are sold through Satechi directly and on Amazon, in all four colors.

Summary
Satechi's MacBook Neo Collection answers a single question — how to make up for a machine with few ports — with two hubs of different character. Keep six ports permanently attached to the side, or stick a puck to the lid and expand only when needed. Both land at the same 44.99 USD, so the deciding factor is less about specifications than about how you work. Together with the four matched colors and the quiet mouse, it is a deliberately narrow lineup aimed at people who chose the Neo.
