This is the screen, not the laptop. The chassis (lid) is bigger — bezels add roughly 1–2 cm each side, so a 13.3″ laptop is often ~30 × 21 cm closed. For sleeve or bag fit, use the laptop's listed dimensions, not the screen size.

Frequently asked questions

How big is a 14″ laptop screen in cm?

About 31.0 × 17.4 cm on 16:9, or 30.2 × 18.8 cm on 16:10.

What size sleeve for a 14″ laptop?

Go by the laptop's chassis size, not the screen — a 14″ laptop is typically a couple of cm larger each way than the screen figure.

What's the difference between 16:9 and 16:10?

16:10 is taller for the same diagonal — more vertical space for documents and code. MacBooks and many premium laptops use it.
