What this record means
The record shows that “MACBOOK NEO” is a pending application owned by Apple Inc., currently published for opposition on August 11, 2026. The mark covers computers, laptop computers, notebook computers, computer hardware, recorded operating software and system software, computer peripherals, power adapters, and computer cables under class 009. A similar name would raise the closest concern for any product or service that falls within those electronic device and software categories. The record does not give Apple control over every use of the words “Macbook” or “Neo” in unrelated contexts. The prosecution history indicates the application was approved for publication on July 8, 2026, with a use amendment accepted, and it has been on the Principal Register since publication. No oppositions, cancellations, or other enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that any use in the same or closely related technology goods could trigger an opposition or infringement claim.
