MacBook Pro — Sleeves, Hardshells, Screen Protection & MagSafe 3 for 13/14/15/16"

Which MacBook Pro do you have?

Three big generation waves since 2016:

• MacBook Pro M3/M4 (2023+) — 14"/16", Liquid Retina XDR, MagSafe 3, 3× Thunderbolt, HDMI, SD slot.
• MacBook Pro M1/M2 (2020-2023) — 13"/14"/16", first M chip on 13" 2020 with Touch Bar (the last), 14"/16" 2021 first without Touch Bar and MagSafe 3 returned.
• MacBook Pro Intel (2016-2019) — 13"/15"/16", 4× USB-C (Touch Bar), no MagSafe, no HDMI. 16" Intel landed 2019 as last Intel generation.
• Screen protectors for MacBook displays — see MacBook screen protection.

MacBook Pro generations at a glance

Key spec shifts:

• Connector — 4× USB-C (Touch Bar 2016-2020 + M2 13"), USB-A + SD + HDMI on 14"/16" M-Pro/Max (2021+).
• MagSafe 3 — Apple brought MagSafe back as "MagSafe 3" in 2021 (14"/16" M-Pro/Max). 13" M2 still charges via USB-C.
• Touch Bar — 2016-2021. Fully removed from 14"/16" M-series (2021).
• Notch — small display cut-out for the webcam, from 14"/16" 2021.
• M chips — M1 (2020) → M2 (2022) → M3 (2023) → M4 (2024). Efficiency leaps over Intel.

Which accessory fits which model?

• Sleeve / hardshell — per generation since outer dimensions change between 13"/14" and 15"/16". Mind the exact display size.
• MagSafe 3 cable — compatible with every 14"/16" M-Pro/Max from 2021. NOT with Intel MacBooks or 13" M2.
• USB-C cable — universal. PD up to 96 W (14") or 140 W (16").
• USB-C hub — more useful on older M2/Intel 13" (only 2× USB-C) and on USB-C-only Intel models. Less needed on 14"/16" M-series (HDMI/SD built in).

Pick the protection by your routine

For students we recommend a 13"/14" sleeve with keyboard cover. Creative pros choose hardshell + keyboard cover + paper-feel film on the display. Travellers reach for a sleeve with outer pocket for cable and charger. Commuters combine hardshell with carrying strap. Families choose polycarbonate cases with anti-slip feet. Sustainable options: recycled felt, wool fleece and vegan PU leather. Crossbody carrying straps for sleeves are available — hands-free for lecture-start.

Repairs & spare parts

In our stores in Basel, Aarau and Olten we repair MacBook Pros — display, battery, logic board, keyboard, trackpad. A battery repair typically runs CHF 250–400 depending on generation. Display repairs are around CHF 400–900 for 14"/16". 30–50% cheaper than a refurbished replacement device. All spare parts MFi/CE/TÜV-compliant.

Frequently asked questions

Which MacBook Pro do I have?

Apple menu → "About This Mac" → model name (e.g. "MacBook Pro 14" 2023, M3 Pro"). Alternatively serial-number check on checkcoverage.apple.com.

Does the MacBook Pro M2 13" have MagSafe 3?

No — the 13" M2 still charges via USB-C. MagSafe 3 returned in 2021 only on 14"/16" M-Pro/Max. Only from 14" M-series onwards is MagSafe 3 back.

Do I need a USB-C hub?On 14"/16" M-Pro/Max (2021+) less often — you already have HDMI, SD and 3× Thunderbolt. On older Intel models (4× USB-C) or 13" M2 (2× USB-C) a hub with HDMI/USB-A is usually needed.

Which sleeves fit the 14"?

14" and 13" sleeves are often interchangeable — the 14" M-series is only 0.4 cm bigger than the 13" Pro. More precisely: 14"-specific sleeves fit perfectly, 13" sleeves have a tiny gap.

Does the MacBook Pro have Touch ID?

Yes — every MacBook Pro from 2016 (with Touch Bar) and every M-series (also without Touch Bar). Exception: MacBook Pro Late 2016 non-Touch-Bar model.
