Review on ๐Ÿ”ต MOSISO Laptop Sleeve Serenity Blue: Ultimate Protection for MacBook Air 11, Acer Chromebook, HP Stream & More by Lance Harrison

Revainrating 4 out of 5

ATTRACTIVE, WELL MADE AND WATERPROOF... BUT

This laptop case is very well made as other reviewers have noted. No dangling laces or messy seams. A small case for an adapter or mouse is also very practical. Case and small matching case available in 5 color options; I ordered mine in burgundy which is the same shade as the picture in the ad. The version with handles and side pockets is available in 4 colors. The case is really attractive; smooth and streamlined (see pic #1). The seams are enclosed by a wide strong edging (see photo #2)... very nice. The zipper looks secure (see pic #3) and has piping running down the side (inside the pocket) to reduce the risk of snagging or snagging on the fabric - see pic #4. Also see pic #4 How Beautiful , The plush and soft inner lining of the case provides excellent protection from scratches as well as bumps and bumps. The inner lining of the small bag for an adapter or mouse is made of the same plush fabric. It has protective piping on the sides and the zipper extends from the bottom of one side of the case to the other and almost unfolds when fully open - see pic #5. In a review I read one person stated that the sleeve is too spacious for her laptop. Both the sleeve (without handles) and the version with handles are available in different sizes: 11-11.6" / 12" / 12-13.3" / 14" / 15-15.6". It seems that, when the case was "too bigโ€ for the laptop, the case was ordered the wrong size. I ordered my 13-13.3" case for my 13.3" MacBook Pro with Retina. As you in As you can see in pic 6 my MacBook (thin hard cover) fits neatly and tidily in the laptop bag and prevents it from shifting once the bag is closed.I've read in other reviews that the case isn't really waterproof and water like a Sponge absorbs. I tested it myself. I dropped water on the laptop sleeve. After waiting 15-20 seconds, I photographed the water, which mostly remained on the surface in the form of pebbles - see photo #7 After taking a picture of the water droplets, I used folded paper towels to blot the water (apply pressure - do not wipe or rub) - see picture #8. As you can see in picture #9, taken right after wetting the water drops, the laptop case was relatively dry. Maybe not completely dry, but not wet either. In my opinion, a laptop sleeve offers some protection against moisture. Although the case is not waterproof, it is relatively resistant to water. This is one of the unique characteristics of neoprene - the fabric from which it is made. As for the smell, which some of the other reviews have complained about. Yes, I also noticed a slight odor from the laptop sleeve; The smell was very strong when I sniffed the sleeve up close. The smell is reminiscent of oil, which is not surprising since neoprene is made from oil. WHAT IS NEOPRENE? Neoprene is a synthetic polymer that resembles rubber, or in some cases a type of foam. It is oil, heat and weather resistant. In fact, neoprene remains flexible over a wide range of temperatures and is considered a good insulator. It also helps absorb shock and has some stretch. Some types of products made from neoprene include laptop bags, orthopedic supports, patio furniture cushions, saddle pads, cycling gloves and wetsuits (for diving). strong and durable, like Superman, he has his own kryptonite; There are a few common chemicals to keep away from your new laptop sleeve. Boric acid, hydrogen peroxide, iodine, lard, palm oil and urineโ€ฆ all of these destroy neoprene on contact. BENEFITS* The Mosiso laptop sleeve (made of waterproof neoprene) is attractive and streamlined; It's elegant and looks professional. Combined with the neoprene material, a layer of polyester foam padding and a plush lining provide good protection for your laptop or tablet from scratches, dents, bumps and moisture - IF YOU NOTE TWO IMPORTANT FACTS: sleeve/sleeve and not hard. Because it's made of cloth and not a hard material, take precautions and handle your expensive laptop/tablet with care even when it's in a bag. 2.) Although the laptop bag is made of waterproof material, please avoid getting it wet. It protects against moisture, light rain or light splashes. (In such cases, remove the laptop from the sleeve as soon as possible, blot moisture out of the sleeve, and make sure it is completely dry before placing the laptop back in the sleeve.) Submerge the laptop sleeve in Water or leaving it soaked in some liquid along with the laptop is not a good idea. * The laptop case and small matching bag are well designed, well made and made from reasonably durable materials. How does this laptop bag hold up over time? I've had mine for a little over a week but so far so good. Only time will tell how it holds up over time.* The laptop sleeve costs $14.99 and is great value. Because of the design and workmanship I give this laptop sleeve 5 stars. However, it loses 1 star for the reasons listed in the CONS section. (I wanted to give 2 stars instead of 1 but argued that it wasn't Moseo's fault that I was so anally attached to potentially negative elements due to my current health issues.) CONS * Being in a small apartment with the windows closed Rainstorm, laptop sleeve smell became more apparent and has become more and more of a problem over time. After my eyes started to sting from sitting next to a laptop bag for hours, I decided to investigate the fabric it was made of, neoprene. I've found that while neoprene has many good qualities (listed above), it also has a few less than attractive ones. Oil based neoprene (hence the weird smell). Lead-containing compounds (which can be toxic) are also used to make finished products. For this reason, some people have an allergic reaction when they come into contact with objects made of this material. with this product. I was in no way obliged to write a detailed review, even a positive one. (If you doubt my credibility as an unbiased reviewer, please visit my public profile page and read the private message in my bio. Also, please note that I don't always do this, even when considering a product I do received for free or at a reduced price Rate the product with 5 or even 4 stars.) It took me a while to write this review, but I have provided an overview that is as complete and clear as possible, as well as some photos. Why? 'Cause I'm just like you I rely on the comments and experiences of other consumers to make Revain purchase decisions. Many Thanks.
