The case fits really well but it doesn't not hold up very well. Had mine for 1 year now and it's falling apart.

A Complete Waste of Money

I have now owned this item for four months and have been sorely disappointed. From day one my MacBook could not be recharged without being in the open position. The mold flashing in that area was sharp and jagged, not allowing the charging plug to be inserted in the closed position, despite the design suggesting it could be. The top cover has now completely fallen into large pieces. My MacBook has ALWAYS been treated gently, and never dropped, bumped or banged into anything. First it was the corners of this cover that began cracking, then breaking completely off. in small pieces. The bottom on the other hand has functioned as it should, although my replacement (from another source) has vent holes, that his item does not. At over $50 I expected better, my new replacement is performing as I expected this item to, and shows no signs of fatigue or fracturing in the points this item began failing. I do not recommend this item at all.

Nice design and heavy duty! I accidentally dropped it from my kitchen table and my Mac air was safe. Definitely recommend this.

The case seems decent. The shell is not nearly as clear as I was expecting. On my last Mac I had a clear case and put a skin on the MacBook itself which could easily show through. This was so reflective I doubt you could do that here. I ended up returning and just using the MacBook bare. A case really takes away from the design of the Air so I figured I would carry it as-is.

The Speck Smartshell Case for the MacBook Air 15" (2023) offers a decent blend of style and protection. The slim profile adds minimal bulk, preserving the sleek design of the MacBook. The case provides satisfactory scratch and scuff resistance, but the overall durability might not match some heavier-duty alternatives. The installation process is straightforward, and the case doesn't interfere with ports or functions. While it does its job reasonably well for daily protection, it may not be the go-to choice for those seeking heavy-duty protection against more significant impacts.

I like that it is a hard shell. It protects from scratches when I throw It in my purse with everything else and I cant have the sticker aesthetic without messing up the computer itself.

Works great, I love the size of the screen! Very easy to use! It runs fast as well which is great for a student, as well as has a lot of storage. The screen allows you to put folders on the home screen which my other computer, a Chromebook, did not, which makes keeping things on file and accessing them so much easier to find and access!
