Need to show a SaaS dashboard to a client? This working on MacBook mockup does the job in a few minutes.
It’s a handy file for developers and web designers. 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. For a fuller case study, combine it with a laptop or tablet mockup showing the desktop version.

Questions about this mockup
Is it free for commercial use?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to PSD Graphics. 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.
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.
