Review on πŸ”’ Secure Your MacBook Pro with Touch Bar: Maclocks MBPRLDGTB01CL Security Laptop Ledge Lock Adapter by Loren Slama

Revainrating 4 out of 5

NOT suitable for MacBook Pro 2019 with Touch Bar!

Please note this product is NOT compatible with 2019 Macbook Pro 13" with Touch Bar. I ordered this product and need to return it. I have a 13 inch with only two USB-C ports but it doesn't. probably doesn't matter compared to the 4-port version. The problem with this is that the edge-lock adapter is shaped to fit into the side vent on the bottom of the MacBook Pro. Pretty tricky when Apple's new design puts vents on the back, in the area where the screen pivots when opening and closing! As a result, there are no side ventilation slots below (see photo) and it is therefore not possible to attach the end piece. The item description should be updated to explain that it is not compatible with the 2019 version. FYI, I've used another MacLocks product successfully on a 2015 Macbook Pro (the edge will loosen a little over time, but tightens easily and I'm generally happy). It was attached to the center of the side with a screw that simply replaced the Apple screw at the bottom; Apple's newer versions have done away with this screw.)

Pros
  • Many will fit
Cons
  • Security
