Hardware-Exclusive Mac Accent Colors
By default, the MacOS accent color in System Settings → Appearance defaults to a color that matches the Neo’s hardware — a fun trick Apple has been using for decades.
This is the first I’m learning that System Settings sometimes has a special accent color only available to a Mac with a particular hardware colorway. (I’m boring and always buy silver devices, otherwise I think I would have noticed.)
I’m a bit annoyed that I didn’t know to test with these colors. I test with all the other colors.
Accents is an app that lets you use the iMac/MacBook Neo accent colors on any Mac.
The MacBook Neo ships with a special build of macOS 26.3, AppleInsider as predicted. All other Macs will need macOS 26.4 beta 4 to get the wallpapers made for the machine.
