This minimal MacBook Pro mockup is a quick way to show a SaaS dashboard without a photo shoot.
Good pick for web designers, agencies or anyone putting together a portfolio. A small tip: make your screen design at the exact pixel size of the smart object, otherwise text on the screen turns blurry.
It’s also a quick way to make case study images look consistent: same device, same angle, different screens. Pair it with a second device from the same angle to show a responsive layout.

What you can edit in this Minimal MacBook Pro Mockup
Main things you can change in Photoshop:
- Screen design, placed through the smart object
- Background colour
- Shadow under the device
How to use the Minimal MacBook Pro Mockup
- 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.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Lower the glare layer if it hides small text.
- Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.
Worth remembering: for app store or portfolio images, crop tight around the device so the screen fills most of the frame.
Best uses for this Minimal MacBook Pro Mockup

Questions about this mockup
Can I use this MacBook mockup for client work?
Mockup Nest sets the licence, and it can differ from file to file. Many free files allow personal and commercial use, but some are personal-only or ask for credit. Read the terms on the download page before a paid project.
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.
Do I need Photoshop?
Yes. This is a PSD mockup built with smart objects, so you edit it in Adobe Photoshop. Any recent CC version works.
Can I remove the screen reflection?
Usually yes. Reflections and glare are normally a separate layer that you can hide or lower in opacity.
