The NEO is a Yubikey v3. It supports NFC. v3 is the last FOSS one, but it does not support FIDO2. If you want a YubiKey with NFC which supports FIDO2, you need a YubiKey 5 (NFC version). Or a Solo with NFC (the Solo support FIDO2 and is FOSS).
I happen to have one of the InCharge chargers as keychain [1] and what is interesting is that it is 3 chargers in one: one's always USB-A, other one is either USB-C or microUSB/lightning. So they combine microUSB with lightning on the same connector. I wonder why YubiCo did not go with a similar design.

- timothy-quinn 7y agoIn my experience too with testing the NEO, they're just not as reliable to work with compared to the later models (both over NFC and USB). I believe the NEO was the first to bring in new features for the Yubikey, and the kinks weren't all ironed out yet. If you have a NEO still, I'd recommend at least upgrading to a 4 if you can.
- Fnoord 7y agoMy NEO is my backup key. My YubiKey Nano 4 is my main key. I also got 2 Solo, but they only do Fido 2 (not SC) so they're not very useful for me. Though one will, once I got my next phone (will have NFC).
