Review on πŸ’Ž Crystalline Clear MacBook Pro 16 Inch Case (A2141) - Hard Shell Bundle with Keyboard Cover & Screen Protector for 2021, 2020, 2019 Release Models by Leonard Herrera

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not bad, especially 4th prize :)

So I've spent hours browsing reviews of laptop sleeves. I chose this one because it has the highest five star rating and I think the 1 star rating doesn't seem that bad even though fewer people bought it. I think if you can overlook certain issues then that's five stars. Durability: I wear this case for about 5 minutes, but it feels STURDY. Like it's really going nowhere. I can come back and update if I run into problems later, but I really feel it protects. The exterior and screen are protected from scratches. Easy Installation: It took me 20-30 minutes to finish all the components: Screen: The protection screen took a lot of time, it's not impossible, but you have to be patient. Personally, small bubbles bother me a lot, so I had to make a system. Basically you put the sticky side in just a little at a time and roll it against the screen, gradually removing the bubbles (I used my phone for even pressure) and removing the backing as you set it down. It took several tries. But I made it myself and it looks amazing if you take your time. If you don't care about bubbles, it won't take long. Case: It has those prongs/edges that are used to hold it on the laptop. When it's on, it's great! This makes it safer. But you have to press hard for the corners to snap. Once they snap into place, the case doesn't go anywhere, at least not at the top. You also need to put them on in the correct order (instructions are limited, but I figured it out pretty easily). For the back panel you will need to attach the edge pieces to the hinge and then the front corner piece. If you place it on an outside corner, it's almost impossible to snap it on the hinges. General Pros: - Comes with many different things for the price! - Very durable, I'm sure it will protect my computer. - Keyboard cover and screen are super cool extras - Cheaper than alternatives but I think it will be the same quality. Cons: - Part of the camera doesn't fit the screen, I won't use it. But that's not why I bought it. - Not very sealed around the edges next to the loop on the bottom. There are no corners that snap because then it doesn't close properly. As long as you don't intentionally mess things up, you're fine. It doesn't fall off on its own. - Came with light scratches on the case. Each case half has only one. For me it's not a minus, because I don't care. I tried to photograph them but didn't even succeed because they are so inconspicuous although I got a clear one. - In the picture you can see that the cover is curved, but in fact it is not flexible. It's a tough shell. I think you should know! I like this thing so far. It doesn't bother. I'll go back and update when the case turns yellow like phone cases or when it starts cracking. Don't be scared just because it has fewer reviews than others.

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • For retirees
