1.0 out of 5 stars Protects from external scratches but causes scratches of its own, May 30, 2007
By P. Myers (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Speck MacBook 13" See-Thru Hard Case - CLEAR (Electronics)
I just bought a new MacBook and wanted to keep it as pristine as possible knowing that I'd be toting it back and forth to Bar review classes. After a month of use, I noticed some dirt spots on the case and tried to remove them with Windex and a paper towel. Then I realized the dirt spots weren't dirt at all, but were the shadows of scratches on the inside of the case (i.e., on the surface that makes contact with the outer plastic of the MacBook). After prying off the case (took about a minute all by myself; not that hard) I saw that corresponding scratches were on my MacBook. Since this case isn't airtight (to allow for heat venting I assume), some dust or particles probably got in between the case and the MacBook and the normal use just sandwiched the particle between the two, scratching both surfaces.

Note, this is not one or two scratches. This is in the teens and all over my new MacBook. Preventing scratches like this is exactly what I was trying to avoid by buying this case and when I store my MacBook I always put it in a sleeve. My guess is that the MacBook would have been better off with out the case.

Not happy and I can't really recommend this product. I would have given 2 stars because maybe, just maybe, the MacBook would have been damaged worse without the case. Maybe. I dinged it down to one because there were already some scratches and dings in the case when I opened it up. For any nay sayers, I wiped the case and the MacBook down with a teflon cloth and then air blasted them before putting the case on the MacBook.

5.0 out of 5 stars It works, and works well, October 30, 2007
This review is from: Speck MacBook 13" See-Thru Hard Case - PINK (Electronics)
Like most people I bought the Speck cover to protect my Mac when I travel. And like most people I would like to keep my computer in pristine condition, but in the real world I know that's pretty much impossible. In short everything is a trade-off. If you want your Mac to stay looking like the day you brought it home, you're going to spend more time fussing over it than working on it. But if you bought it to use for its intended purpose, eventually it will show some wear and tear.

If you carry your Mac from home to work or school where it goes from one safe, clean place to another you probably won't need the Speck case. But if you really take your Mac on the road the Speck case is worth a look. I fly over 100,000 miles each year which means that the computer is constantly exposed to TSA security checks, airline tray tables, and numerous lobbies and hotel rooms. I saw the Speck as good protection for when the computer is not snuggled in neoprene or tucked away in my briefcase. And so far it has done its job very well.

I haven't seen the small scratches that some of the folks who posted here refer to, but I don't doubt that they may very well exist. For me however, if I remove the cover and see them on my Mac it will still be worth it to protect it from the big scratches (or chips, or gouges). And speaking of removing the case, I haven't had any problems there either.

The manufacturer's instructions recommend that you slide a thin piece of plastic between the edge of the computer and the cover to "pop" the clips holding the cover on. I used one of those small "frequent purchaser" keychain barcode tags (most grocery and retail stores issues them to customers) to remove the cover with no effort at all. No wrestling, no mangling, and no damage.

Someone also noted that the plastic in the case is too soft, allowing it to flex and cause the small scratches. I'm sure that Speck could change the chemical compound to make the case more rigid, but that would also make it a little less comfortable in your hand, and a little more prone to cracking or even shattering. So we're back to that trade-off thing again. To me they got the right combination.

At the end of the day all computer cases do a good job of protecting your computer when it's safely inside, but the Speck case protects it when it's out and running, which is exactly what I was looking for. Very few cases can make that claim.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but a lot of & for a piece of plastic., July 17, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Speck MB13-ORG-SEE See Thru 13-Inch MacBook Hard Case (Orange) (Electronics)
It looks good on my white macbook and I suppose it offers some level of protection but... there is probably only a dollars worth of plastic in this 40$+ cover... hard to justify. I have also bought a black napa leather cover from covercase for a few dollars less that looks awesome, gets many compliments, keeps my legs cool while sitting on my lap and wont scratch the surface of my macbook because there is no hard plastic touching the case, just a soft red felt lining. Check out covercase on Amazon sold by third party but good service.
