Advantages and disadvantages. - Laptop Accessory

I used this on a 2020 MacBook AirPro A2179: Durability: The case is not slippery like most hard plastic cases and I like the grippy part on the back. It also doesn't stick like some of the other sticky materials you see on cases. The plastic appears to be of good quality. I'm a very clumsy person and my computer feels very secure. The case is also very tight on the computer, which I like. This will make you feel even safer. (See list of cons!) Easy to remove: Some comments say they cracked the screen when removing the case. Probably filmed wrong. Looks good: I like the professional, secure look of the case. It's not fancy, but someone can always personalize it with stickers. I like that it's crisp and you can see the Apple logo. Cons: (After using the case for a few days) Putting the case on: I found it very difficult and I was never able to get it the way I wanted. To be honest, I was afraid that trying to insert the case would break the screen. Pulls Back: Whenever I tried to move the computer screen backwards a bit, the corner wouldn't click (see photo). I tend to fidget a lot so I found it really annoying because it came loose, I would realistically put the case back on then I would accidentally snap it off and fiddle with it before starting the process over and over again. If you can avoid messing around with the case, that's really good. I can't, it just doesn't work for me. Overheating: My computer started overheating. Of course: I don't know if it was because I had many programs open at the same time or if it was a coincidence. But I was still a bit disappointed with it. Price: That's a lot of money to be honest, but I understand you're making an investment. Conclusion: I will send the case back and get something else. I think this case is more secure than hard plastic cases, but I'm willing to take that risk.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Not the best
