MacBook Pro M5 Pro keyboard protection

[ddebacker]

I recently bought a 14-inch MacBook Pro M5 Pro with the nano-texture display and I’m looking for feedback from people using the RadTech ScreenSavrz microfiber keyboard protector long-term.

Specifically:

• Does it work well to prevent keyboard grease/oil transfer onto the screen?
• Any issues with pressure marks or screen contact over time?
• Safe for travel use inside backpacks/carry-ons?
• Any concerns specifically with the nano-texture display?

I’m NOT looking for a keyboard cover — only the ultra-thin microfiber separator cloth that sits between the keyboard and display when closed.

Since RadTech doesn’t list the newer M5 models yet, I assume the “14-inch MacBook Pro (2023/2021)” version is still the correct fit due to the chassis dimensions remaining the same.

Would also appreciate comparisons versus:

• UPPERCASE GhostBlanket
• Apple polishing cloth
• other microfiber separators

Thanks — trying to protect the nano-texture display as much as possible while traveling frequently.

Where did you purchase the microfiber protector? I had thought RadTech had gone out of business... several threads on the topic

I don't see any changes to their website. Their ScreenSavrz can still be purchased (although the most recent date for a MacBook Pro is 2023) at https://www.radtech.com/products/screensavrz-macbook-pro-keyboard-cover

I don't have the nano-texture but I've been using a thin microfiber cloth between the keyboard and screen on my M3 Max 16" for about a year of regular travel — backpacks, overhead bins, the works. Zero pressure marks, no issues at all.
The one thing I'd be careful about: make sure it lies completely flat before closing. Any fold or bunching will leave a temporary impression on the screen coating, even on standard glossy glass. For nano-texture specifically I'd be extra vigilant about that since the coating is more delicate and more visible when disturbed. A flat, properly-sized cloth that doesn't overhang the edges should be totally fine though.
