| THIS CASE IS NOT FOR THE NEWEST 13" MACBOOK BUT THEY DON'T TELL YOU THAT WHEN YOU BUY IT
I purchased this case because it says it will fit a 13" MacBook Aluminum/Unibody - which I recently bought - but what this listing does not tell you is that although the case snaps on, it OBSTRUCTS access to the kensington lock and makes it impossible to plug in your power supply or headphones completely.
When I contacted the company for a return and refund they were EXTREMELY DIFFICULT and though they refunded the purchase price, I had to pay for return shipping and they wouldn't refund my original shipping cost - I lost out on $16 because they made a marketing error (The Speck website offers a disclaimer that this item will not fit, they don't even make a case for 13" Aluminum/Unibodies purchased after 6/8/09!!!!) I also had to argue with them over a 15% restocking fee! I didn't change my mind on this product, I was sold a product mislabeled as appropriate for my computer.
THIS COMPANY IS SELLING A PRODUCT THAT THEY KNOW WILL NOT FIT AND WILL NOT WORK WITH YOU TO CORRECT THEIR MISTAKE!! BUYER BEWARE!!! DO NOT BUY FROM DATAVSION!
| | The best shield for your MacBook |
| This case is the best you can have. It is almost weightless, you almost don't see it and it protects your gem. I have had it for MacBook Pro, MacBook Air and for MacBook.
It looks and serves great.
Fits your machine perfectly.
| | This is for the new aluminum Macbook. The product fits securely and seems to be well constructed. It does add a bit of weight. Also worth mentioning, a "Speck" logo is now located on the top portion of the case--probably about an 1.5" wide, and clear. This logo was not present on the previous Macbook pro case. I was a little disappointed to see it there and prefer to have the cleaner look of just the Apple logo.
Good product overall though.
| | Okay, So It is a very nice case overall and the only reason it didn't get 5 stars is because there is a bit of spacing on the top cover which attracts dirt & dust. (and yes i have the 13" macbook pro, the right laptop necessary)
On the plus side i must say it is a MUST HAVE! If you have got your eye on it. Obviously it comes with a wipe to clean off the dust. I would recommend a cleaning of once a week to maintain your macbook in general.
So Far, so good, once again a great amazon deal and a great product.
| | Perfect Case for the MacBook 13" Aluminum Unibody [not white plastic model] |
| This is a transparent, hard-shell case for the newer [late 2008] MacBook 13" Aluminum Unibody, with black keyboard and no firewire, not the older white plastic model with removeable keyboard, and with firewire. This case is currently available in clear, pink, red, aqua, green, hazard orange, and purple; but there is also a translucent, 'satin soft-touch' version, available in black, purple, cranberry, pink and yellow. Most are hard to find.
The fit is perfect and snug, and removal is fairly simple. No overheating issues, all ports are accessible, and the MacBook opens as far as I ever opened it before.
The only complaint I've seen elsewhere is that dirt gets under the case and can scratch the MacBook. The instructions recommend removing the case and cleaning the MacBook with the included cloth at regular intervals to avoid this [as well as before installing the first time]. I've only had mine a few weeks, so haven't done that yet, but there is no dirt visible under my case.
Overall, I'm totally pleased with how well it fits and seems like part of the unit. I forget it's even there, and a few folks have commented about not knowing that Apple came out with new notebooks in colors!
Great!
