Could you recommend me the best cover to protect Apple Studio Display from dust, scratches on the screen and metal parts?

I saw some covers on Amazon but I'm worried that the internal material could scratch the screen. Any suggestions?


Thank in advance

I bought a dust cover from Nuova Covers for my Studio display and it is lined with a nice interior. The front is also padded. Mainly bought it because my two toddlers were throwing around toys;(.

Make your own and save some money 😆

I’m I've got a secret trick up my sleeve
I never bother with baggies, glass jars, Tupperware containers
Plastic cling wrap, really a no-brainer
I just like to keep all my flavors sealed in tight
With aluminum foil (Foil)
Never settle for less

 
I would think the air vents are being covered - and restricting airflow would be, well, very bad. I would think just blowing the dust off the top of the case would be enough, along with something like this Spigen Stand for the base:

Thanks for answer me. I got the Spigen one. But i am referring to a cover for when it is not in use and to protect it from scratches or someone dropping something. You think in this case that this one could be usefull?

Why you wouldn't cover the Mac Studio when it not in use? Wich is the risk?

Is this the "MacGizmo" from the old MacCentral Forums???

Great...AKA "Biggerfoot" here. I have lost touch with the other members over time.
Small world, isn't it?! The only folks I've managed to keep tabs on are all over at a private Facebook Group. DM me your Facebook ID (if you're on Facebook) and I'll "invite" you.

As for the Mac Studio stand, the one I linked to is probably the only one I would even consider buying. I wish Apple would at least make it easy to crack the case open to blow the dust out.

I'm a big fan of the package design of the Studio. I think it is the most attractive product that Apple makes. If I had one, I would want it out on my desk, uncovered, so that I could admire it at all times. And, unless you live in a house full of super aggressive cats, how could it get scratched ? Just my opinion 🙂.

I'm fully in the camp of "I don't care what it looks like, I'm just gonna throw a $2 dish towel I already have over the top of it if I'm that worried about dust." Obviously, I'm not the guy whos opinion you want. LOL.

Man, what is with this thread?

Folks, this if for the Studio DISPLAY. Not others things. Post if you found a solution TO THAT. Or if you tried one of those $30 dollar Amazon solutions, which are questionable in regards to scratching.

Thanks.

A simple search on Amazon or Google yields a ton of results for DISPLAY dust covers... I'm not sure any discussion beyond that is really necessary. They all offer scratch-free materials, so it pretty much comes down to price.

PS: The off-topic discussion of the Studio MAC instead of DISPLAY is probably my fault because I didn't catch that in the OP. So, sorry about that.

Thanks, and you are probably right. Just somebody 'suggested' stratching, which could potentially be a real problem not knowing what 'soft material' is actualy going to be, with Amazon listings. Probably fine, but it's not Gorilla glass.
 
From what I'm seeing, almost all the dust covers over $10 have microfiber cloth on the inside. That being said, I would be wary of most all of them that claim to fit the Studio Display. The product photos look great, but the photos the buyers post on Amazon show a very different reality.
