Hard shell protector, palm rest protector and keyboard protector for MBA M2

I recently purchased the new MacBook Air M2, which I absolutely love. However, I've come across some concerning information regarding protective accessories for the MacBook Air, particularly in relation to the screen.

I've watched several videos on YouTube discussing protective accessories for the MacBook Air and their potential to cause damage to the screen. Some of these videos claim that Apple issued a statement in 2021 warning against the use of certain protective accessories to prevent screen damage.


I seek clarification on how best to protect my device without risking damage. Could you please provide information on recommended protective measures or accessories that are safe to use with the MacBook Air M2?

MacBook Air, macOS 14.4

Do not use a hard case. Use a soft sleeve or computer backpack when traveling with the computer. Remove the computer from the sleeve/backpack before using.
