Developers and agencies tend to get the most out of files like this. A small tip: screenshots with a white background can blend into the bezel; a thin shadow or darker UI reads better.
Stakeholders who don’t read wireframes still understand a screen on a device straight away.

Industrial MacBook Air Mockup: editable parts
Main things you can change in Photoshop:
- Screen design, placed through the smart object
- Screen glare and reflection layers
- Device colour, where the file includes it
How to edit this Industrial MacBook Air Mockup in Photoshop
- Pick one strong screen. It reads better than a crowded one.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
- Hide the reflection layer for a flatter look.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
One more thing: make your screen design at the exact pixel size of the smart object, otherwise text on the screen turns blurry.

Questions about this mockup
What licence does it come with?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Pixelbuddha. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I put my artwork on the MacBook?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
What size should my screenshot be?
Open the screen smart object and check its canvas size in Image › Canvas Size. Paste your screenshot at that size so it stays sharp.
