Here Are the Best Covers to Protect Your Laptop

PSafe Newsroom — Mon, 24 Oct 2016 21:02:13 +0000

A protective laptop cover is a great way to extend your laptop’s life. It can help to protect your laptop and its contents against physical damage, help your laptop to stay cool, and even hold together a laptop that might be falling apart. For even more protection, however, make sure to carry your laptop in a water-proof and well-padded bag. The following are the best protective laptop covers available now.

Brenthaven Covers
This company offers a wide variety of protective sleeves and cases for a large selection of different laptop sizes. It will be easier to find a protective sleeve for your laptop on their website, however, than it will be to find a hard shell case. You’ll be able to find cases for your Chromebook or Ultrabook, in addition to 15.6-inch, 16-inch, and 17-inch laptops, among others. Prices tend to range from about $30 for a laptop sleeve to $150+ for a laptop bag. Their products tend to be offered in neutral colors. Their laptop sleeves are sleek, with a padded interior, and often include exterior pockets for your phone or laptop charger.

ProCase Laptop Sleeve
This laptop cover is a case, sleeve, and bag all in one. It is available in several colors and sizes, and should fit all laptops smaller than 15.6 inches. There is an extra pocket included for any miscellaneous items. This case should protect against dirt and any potential damage. The company even claims that the case is waterproof. It is available on Amazon for about $20.

Kamor Neoprene Cover
This cover is available on Amazon in a variety of colors for about $13. You can find this laptop sleeve style for most available sizes, from an 11.6-inch laptop to a 17-inch laptop. One of the main benefits of this case is that it’s waterproof — a great perk if you find yourself suddenly stuck in a massive storm.

Protect Your Device with PSafe
It’s just as important — if not more important — to also protect the data stored on your laptop. Make sure to regularly backup the contents of your laptop onto an external hard drive. That way, in case of an emergency, you’ll never lose valuable data. Further protect the contents of your laptop by downloading PSafe Total Windows to protect your data against security threats 24/7. PSafe Total Windows will also optimize your laptop through disc cleanup and by removing unnecessary files. With a good laptop cover and antivirus software, your laptop data will be protected from the outside world — and the cyber world.

Must Have Accessories for Your Laptop or Desktop Computer

PSafe Newsroom — Mon, 12 Sep 2016 21:42:39 +0000

Even though tablets have become increasingly popular to use for all of your electronic needs, most people still tend to use a laptop or desktop computer to complete work for their business or education, or even to play online games. While laptops and desktops have gotten cheaper over the years (which makes them easier to replace and update when needed), you still want to make sure that you get the most use out of your investment. Below are some of the best accessories available to improve your desktop or laptop experience.

A Laptop Cooling Pad or Stand

While working in bed might be comfortable for you, it’s not comfortable for your laptop. The solution to this issue is to make sure your laptop is able to “breathe” by using a laptop stand or cooling pad. These tend to be about $10-$40. Don’t have money to spend? A book underneath your laptop will often work just as well.

In addition, your laptop and desktop computer can also overheat from dust buildup in the fan or a hot environment. Make sure to use your computer in a cool place, and to check for and remove dust when necessary. All of these precautions will help you to get the most use out of your computer and ensure that it runs at an optimal speed.

A Keyboard Cover

Silicone keyboard covers are thin, flexible, and often come in great colors. They are important for protecting your keyboard against dust, dirt, liquid, and food. This will help to keep all of your keys functioning properly, and even keep the numbers and letters from fading. If you’re worried about germs, the covers can be washed and disinfected. Keeping your laptop looking brand-new has never been easier.

An External Hard Drive

This device is absolutely necessary if you store anything of value — such as documents, photos, videos, et cetera — on your computer. Even though desktop computers often have more storage space than laptops, it is a good idea to backup your data on an external hard drive in case your computer crashes, whether from age or malware. Or, maybe you just need more storage space, and would rather keep all of your larger files on an external drive. Whatever your reason, there is no excuse to not have this device. Especially now that you can purchase a 1TB hard drive for around $50.

PSafe Newsroom — Thu, 04 Aug 2016 17:30:29 +0000

To keep from having to purchase and carry around a number of technological devices, many people today are looking for devices that can do double-duty. The good news is that your Android phone has the ability to be turned into a laptop through the use of Superbook by Andromium.

What is Superbook and How Does It Work

Superbook is a smart laptop shell that produces a complete laptop experience when it is connected to your Android smartphone. The smart laptop shell features a laptop sized screen, a keyboard, and a touchpad. The only thing that is missing from this pseudo-laptop is a processor. Connecting it to your android phone, however, provides the shell with processor functioning. This smart laptop shell allows an android smartphone user to use it as if it were a laptop when it is connected to the phone.

The Superbook is a product that was funded through the use of Kickstarter. The makers of the Superbook boast that the device allows users to do everything that they normally would do on a laptop by simply plugging a smartphone into the device. Browsing, programming, using office applications, and more are all possible on this device through the Andromium OS app.

What Type of Android Device Do You Need

Not all Android smartphones can be used with Superbook. Your Android device must run Android 5.0 or later. This allows the phone to have enough capability to power the laptop shell effectively.

Get Your Superbook Today

The Superbook is available on the crowdfunding site Kickstarter for the price of $99. You can purchase it today by going to the site and pledging the cost.

PSafe and The Superbook

PSafe offers top of the line security and performance solutions to Android users to enhance the user experience while keeping the user’s device safe from malicious threats. PSafe products can be used in conjunction with the Superbook in the same way that it can with your Android smartphone or device. PSafe Total boosts internet speed with Internet Booster, optimizes storage space with Memory Booster, prevents overheating with CPU Cooler, and protects against viruses and malicious threat and viruses with antivirus protection.

Tips for Traveling Safely with Your Laptop

PSafe Newsroom — Mon, 25 Jul 2016 19:49:05 +0000

Whether you’re traveling for business or pleasure, your laptop will likely accompany you. Although traveling with your computer provides a portable workspace or a source of entertainment or communication, it also presents a new set of security concerns and threats. Check out these tips to ensure that you do everything you can to protect your laptop while away from home.

Protect It Physically

You paid a lot for your laptop, so it’s only logical to pay a little more to ensure that it’s protected from preventable damage. From chaotic airports to crowded attractions, the hustle and bustle of traveling makes physical protection for your computer more important than ever. Shelter your computer with three protective layers: a plastic shell, a cushioning sleeve, and a closed backpack or bag. To avoid unnecessary heat damage, double-check that your laptop is turned completely off — that doesn’t mean in “sleep” mode! — before placing it in a closed sleeve or bag.

Protect It When It’s out of Sight

Even if you’re traveling for business, you likely won’t need to have your computer by your side 24/7. If you leave it in a hotel room, consider taking advantage of the “do not disturb” door hanger. You’ll miss out on freshly made beds and clean towels, but it means fewer people going in and out of your room, significantly lowering the chances of having your laptop stolen. If maid service is too important to forgo, keep your computer out of sight and locked up with a cable lock or in a room safe.

Prepare in Case It’s Lost or Stolen

The only thing worse than losing your computer is losing all the information, files and pictures stored on it. Backup everything on your laptop before you leave for your trip. Use an online storage service, such as Google Drive or SkyDrive, or transfer your files to physical hard drives. It’s also a good idea to write down any passwords or sensitive information and store it in a safe spot. Keeping this information in a document on your computer won’t help you if your computer goes missing! Lastly, make sure to record the specifications of your laptop — such as the make, model and serial/service number — so you can report it if it goes missing.

Beware of Public Internet

If you plan to take advantage of free Wi-Fi in hotels, coffee shops, libraries, or any other public place, do so with extreme caution. Unsecured public Wi-Fi networks are breeding grounds for viruses, malware, and data breaches. Consider using a virtual private network, or VPN, to surf the web safely. If you’re traveling for business, your company may have one that you can use. Otherwise, you can easily buy one from various providers. Also be sure that your laptop is protected with up-to-date antivirus and antitheft software. Fortunately, PSafe Total Windows makes it easy to protect your Windows laptop with unbeatable protection and enhancements
