One of the core tech accessories that most people forget about is owning a suitable laptop case, cover, or sleeve. We've tested plenty of these on CB over the years, specifically MacBook Pro cases (most of us on the team use these for work) as well as MacBook Air cases too. Seeking something fancy? See these 9 beautiful laptop bags.

It's not only the design that you need to look for in a MacBook case, but its durability, padding, protective features, accessibility (pockets for cables) and the material it's made from. Ever owned a tumbler that leaked in your bag? You'll want a waterproof laptop case to prevent any unwanted damage to your pricey device.

There are several types of protection you can get for your MacBook Pro. These include a hard case, a laptop sleeve, and a screen protector, too. A sleeve is essentially a soft pouch that can protect your Mac from any knocks and scrapes in transit, whereas a case is usually made from harder plastic material and affixes to your device by clipping onto the screen. Cases will protect the back and bottom of your laptop while offering cutouts for ventilation to prevent any overheating.

Laptop sleeves and cases have their share of differences, and I've rounded up some of my top recommendations below from top quality brands you can trust.

There's an array of MacBook Air cases and sleeves out there, which is why we've narrowed down the search for you to only those we've tried and tested. Our top recommendation is Apple's own exclusive hard case and sleeve for guaranteed quality and excellent protection.

Alternatively, there are some much more affordable options out there that can still offer protection at a great value. However, think carefully about the material you choose for your new MacBook Air case or sleeve, especially if you want something that can withstand the outdoors, is waterproof against any accidental coffee spills, and looks stylish at the same time.
