As advertised and cheapest I could find

This item is exactly as described. It seems other customers have received an item that wasn't Maclocks, but the one I received definitely says Macklock. deterrent for my use.

Pros
  • Finally bought it
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

It's better than nothing

I hate my 2016 15" MacBook Pro. This is a work laptop and I was forced to get one because I need to run Xcode. One One of the many things I hate is that the laptop doesn't have a lock hole. To date, a full-featured 15" MacBook Pro costs $4,531 after tax. So I'm really annoyed that there's no lock hole. It is very tempting for someone to steal. This is the only option. If there was something better I would buy it. I would like the screws to be inserted from the side instead of the bottom - then…

Pros
  • The best
Cons
  • I really don't like it, everything is fine

Proven very easy to use

So far it has proven to be very easy to use. Initially it was easy to install. It does not cause problems when closing the laptop. In cafes, I just walk around the counter in the middle of the table. The cable length works well and is not too short.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Appearance

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…

Pros
  • Many will fit
Cons
  • Security

My safety net is the best laptop accessory

I have a new 13" MacBook Pro with Touch Bar. This lock is very easy to install and very easy to use. The lock itself is not flexible, but that means at least that it cannot be stolen, the only negative is that the part you screw into your computer moves a lot and leaves a mark, but the mark can be removed by rubbing FYI, you don't drill holes in yours computer and you don't have to remove any screws.

Pros
  • Wow
Cons
  • Almost OK

Responsive and secure

I have a Mac Pro Retina. The adaptability of the lock adapter is amazing as I can install it on the left or right side next to the touchpad or touchpad, which is very convenient. If you're left-handed and everything is made right-handed, that's amazing. I work in customer service so it's very safe and easy and quick to install and use.

Pros
  • Easy-to-read control panel
Cons
  • Can be damaged

My safety net

I have a new 13" MacBook Pro with Touch Bar. This lock is very easy to install and use. It's flexible, but at least that means it can't be stolen. The only Negatives is that the part you screw into your computer moves a lot and leaves a trace, but the trace can be removed by erasing it, FYI you don't put holes in your computer and you don't have to remove any screws.

Pros
  • Computers and accessories
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Good adapter, BAD combo cable; still waiting for replacement.

I've had the groin lock socket adapter for over a month now and the adapter itself serves the purpose. I can finally lock my new touchscreen MacBook Pro when I'm away from my desk. I only give this product 2 stars because it was a kit: a lock slot adapter AND a cable to use it with. I received a combination cable lock but it jammed during installation and I was never able to use it. I contacted Maclocks to just send back the cable and the initial response was prompt and reassuring that they…

Pros
  • security locks
Cons
  • crumpled
