A couple of new accessories dubbed the MediaDevil Typeguard keyboard protectors for Macbook and Macbook Pro were recently announced. Disclosed by the company that was formerly known as PhoneDevil, these covers sport thin form factors and can be picked by consumers in two versions namely, clear and anti-bacterial.
Serving as protective shields to the keyboards of the mentioned Apple laptops, the covers measure only 0.2mm thin. They claim to provide utmost protection to the keyboards and safeguard them against dust, spills, eatables and other such contaminants. Users are allowed to apply both accessories in an easy manner as well as wash and reuse them.
“Computer keyboards can carry more harmful bacteria than a toilet seat, including those that cause E.coli and staph infections. MediaDevil already offers protective tools for tablets and smartphones, so it was a natural next step to provide laptop users with a similarly effective shield. The result is a thinner guard that complements the sleek design and gives users an anti-bacterial choice for the ultimate protection,†stated MediaDevil founder Callum Bush.
Touting to be over 50 percent thinner as opposed to standard silicon protectors, the new non-adhesive peripherals have been crafted with high-grade, low friction Thermoplastic Urethane. While the clear edition is almost invisible to the eye after application, the anti-bacterial Typeguard variant comes incorporated with silver nanoparticles which prevent the growth of more than 600 kinds of bacteria.
The clear version of the MediaDevil Typeguard keyboard protectors for Macbook and Macbook Pro are priced at $19.97(approx. Rs. 980), while the anti-bacterial variant price reads at $24.97 (approx. Rs. 1,226). They are scheduled to be available in the U.S. through Amazon within a few weeks.
