Apple has released a new TV ad for the MacBook entitled “Stickers.” It features music by Hudson Mohawke and a ton of cool decals and stickers that can spotted at an especially hipster coffee shop near you.
With most of its advertising efforts focused on the iPhone and iPad, Apple hasn’t had a Mac ad in a while. It’s nice to see the change of pace.
You can check out the full ad below:

I definitely love my MacBook Airs
How many do you have?
Two (for now)
2011 13″ w/i5 and 256gb SSD
2013 13″ w/i7, 8GB RAM, & 512gb SSD
Why two?
Have four people in my family, wife uses the 2011, kids use an iMac, I use the 2013 and travel. Getting a new iMac since they argue over the 2011 iMac or my wife’s MBA
seriously dug that ad. I usually hate ads but nope, not this one. Loved the Space Invaders stop motion set. Way cool.
Love it!
Love the use of the old school rainbow Apple logo at the end.
I would never put a sticker on my Macbook but I love the commercial.
Who wouldn’t love their Macs?
Wow great ad!

This is a very cool ad. Underlines the mindshare the brand enjoys, so very well.
If you insist on spamming, please at least check your spelling first.
I put the Lost Dharma logo on my MacBook. Along with a green hard shell.
Cool Logo,
I put Portal stickers on my MacBook with a clear shell.
Love it !
The answer now is Will Apple start adding the option to have stickers on their store web page?
They don’t have to because there are lots of places to get them, like here: http://thedecalguru.com/macbook-decals/?sort=bestselling
I’d love a variety of stickers like “colorforms” that I can change out as my mood does.
This ad is EPIC and has Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine all over it. That Beats acquisition is going to pay off in more ways than 3.
Totally agree. The first people I thought of after seeing this ad for the first time were Dre and Iovine. That acquisition will definitely pay off.
