Whether you need to be able to work on the go or you’re a busy student making regular trips to class or the library, you’d likely choose a laptop over a desktop computer because of the portability factor. You’ve entrusted your laptop to protect your most important documents and files — but what’s protecting the device itself?
Safeguarding your laptop against the elements is essential, but choosing the right protective laptop sleeve can be an art all its own. To help you discover the optimal laptop sleeve for your device, we’ve put together this quick guide with a few key tips.
It may sound silly at first, but the first step to finding the right protective laptop sleeve is to determine whether or not you actually need one. Laptop sleeves are are a good idea if any of the following is true:
Laptop devices can vary widely, which means it’s crucial to consider a few key factors:
Laptops are available in a wide variety of screen sizes. You obviously want to avoid something too small, but you should also skip over the sleeves that are too large for your device. The idea is for your laptop to have a snug fit that is loose enough to fit the laptop while being tight enough that your device isn’t sliding around in the sleeve. Shopping by device can help ensure you’re getting the right fit.
Beyond a proper fit, laptop sleeves range from rugged to sleek, with numerous variations in between. There are even multiple colours! With the wide range of options available, you’re sure to find something that fits your personal style while also being office appropriate.
As you refer back to the factors involved in whether a laptop sleeve is necessary, consider what your day is like. Do you want a sleeve you can tuck under your arm or in a larger bag, or do you need something with a shoulder strap for safe and hands-free carrying?
Keeping these notes in mind will help set you up for success as you shop for a protective laptop sleeve. We invite you to peruse our entire selection of laptop accessories to find the ideal fit for your device.
