Advertisement Apple prides itself on the great design of its devices, but that doesn’t mean you can’t add a little pizzazz yourself. The easiest and best-looking way to express yourself without affecting the device’s aesthetics is to apply a decal or sticker to your MacBook.
Let’s find out where you can buy one. A decal or sticker is basically a design you apply on the MacBook’s top, either on the glowing Apple logo itself, in a small part of the top, or completely across the cover.

Many new laptops have great looking finishes, from glossy plastics to brushed metal. Over time, wear and tear can take its toll, and leave your computer looking scuffed and marred.
Laptop skins can prevent superficial scratches and dings, and keep your laptop looking new much longer. Exterior laptop skins are designed to protect the top, sides, and bottom of your laptop from damage. Hard plastic shells are perfect if you tend to keep your computer in a bag with other belongings like keys, phones, or headphones.
At Amazon.com, you’ll find laptop skins in a huge variety of colors and patterns, so whether you’re looking for bold solid colors, intricate patterns, or characters from pop culture, we offer laptop skins that suit your style. In addition to hard plastic, laptop skins are available in rubberized plastic, carbon fiber, leather, and even wood grain.
To protect your computer’s keyboard, you can use laptop skins designed especially for use with keyboards and track pads. These flexible rubber pads will keep dirt and debris from making its way into your keyboard, and save you time and effort cleaning. The soft touch of rubber provides a nice tactile feedback, and won’t interfere with typing. Many laptop skins for keyboards can even quiet the clack of noisier keyboards. Like exterior skins, keyboard covers come in a range of colors, so you can customize the look of your computer.
At Amazon.com, we also offer complete sets that come with external laptop skins, keyboard covers, and track pad protectors together in one coordinated package.
