Do not expect a high quality product / Inaccurate description

I was one of the first to order this product from the seller because when I checked the information on the product and in particular the date it was only about 12 days from the moment Releases on Revain. The listing had no reviews at all and all I based my purchase on was the product description and seller's photos. I just received a new Apple MacBook Air 2020 (A2179) a week before so I needed a keyboard case ASAP. I finally ordered the item on April 20, 2020. After a (very) long time, I finally received the item in the mail more than a month later on June 4th, 2020, which I think is understandable as it was sent by China Post and had to go through US Customs. The cover is very thin, which should be a good factor, but in this case it's not. It's very thin and literally flies off my keyboard when I blow it. Light? Of course. But too easy? YES SIR. The first problem is also in the name itself - this keyboard cover is NOT CLEAR. It's more of a "matte" clear which is very disappointing. An interesting feature of the new Macbook Air is the backlit keyboard. However, I can barely see the backlight even when it's set to the highest level. And while I said the cover is "frosty," it does cling to certain keys and letters you use most, giving it a jagged, mottled look. For me, the (dry) keyboard sticks with the letters E, R, T, Y, U, J, I, where our fingers mostly rest. Don't expect it to stay in place either, as not only does it fly away on impact, it also shifts when you're typing. Generally not a very high quality keyboard case and does not match its description. And I won't even try to go through the return process after it took a whole month and a half.
