If you’re heading back to school this fall semester, it’s without saying that a laptop computer is an essential tool regardless of what your program of studies is.

There are a variety of tools and gadgets you can get that can greatly improve your experience with your laptop. They’re not absolutely essential, but they can definitely make your life more practical. Just like fashion, it’s important to accessorize your tech gear to reap all of the benefits and versatility that your toys can offer. We’ve therefore compiled five neat and practical accessories to help you out, so take a look below!
#5:Â Laptop Cooling Pad
If you’re a heavy laptop user and have had issues with overheating in the past, then this will be perfect for you.

#4:Â Mosiso Plastic Hard Case
Although most laptops are aesthetically pleasing naked on their own, a good laptop case (such as this Mosiso Hard Case for MacBooks) can offer a new look while also giving it some hardy protection.

Make sure to find a case compatible with your laptop model to avoid any bad surprises.

#2:Â Vetelli Laptop & Tablet Bag
If you have a laptop, chances are you don’t carry it around in your arms all day.
