Review on πŸ’Ό Macally SlimFolio11BL: A Reliable Protective Case Cover for 11-Inch MacBook Air by Larry Allen

Revainrating 3 out of 5

NICE NICE NICE!

I just installed this case on my 11" MacBook Air and I don't think it will come off anytime soon. This case is very stylish and worth every penny of the $40+ I paid for it I like the packaging. It's plastic (recyclable and very minimalistic) but the printing contrasts with the body and really makes it stand out. If you really feel like you have a premium product before you take it out of the Take the packaging! Always clean your devices and case before installation to prevent dust from getting trapped and causing surface abrasion. There will be no problems with this case! The inside is made of a VERY soft microfiber lining. It reminds me of suede and feels like suede.Silk if you run your fingers over it!The outside is probably a faux leather mix and has some metal ic finish that looks fantastic. The light lifts it up, making it hard as metal, but smooth to the touch. The lid protrudes from the Macbook Air on all sides and technically fits snugly against the top of the case, sliding across the bottom of the case as you open and close the device. You have to flex the case a bit to snap it into place (per the instructions) and the locking rails seem strong enough to last. I don't plan on dropping my laptop, but I think it will survive a normal fall if it's closed. What I like best about this case (besides its looks) is that it's not so heavy that your MacBook Air opens completely when you look at an angle of about 120 degrees! I've had many other hard cases and they ALL add enough weight to create this effect. I'm really impressed on day one and will update in a month or so for a follow up. At the same time, make sure you're not wasting your money. I would like to know what materials were used so I can better describe the product. It says on the box that there is a one year warranty.
