    Lasted about two weeks before it started to crack. My macbook stays on my desk and the corners started to crack by themselves. If you carry your laptop arond with you it will probably crack the first day.

    Horrible MacBook Pro Case

    Case is extremely flimsy and when put on the computer the lid portion separated the screen from the computer casing. tried it on two different computers and it began to damage both computers.

      A Speck hardshell should sit flush on the device without lifting the screen or putting pressure on the casing. If the lid is separating the display from the body on more than one computer, that usually indicates the case doesn’t match the exact model. Our team can confirm compatibility and get you into a version that fits securely without stressing the device. Reach out anytime at [email protected]. SpeckProducts

    This had broke 1-2 weeks after purchasing... I am just now writing a review and acknowledging this terrible product...! It was a gift to my gf and apparently it had snapped while putting the cover! What a joke, it is very hard to put on and take off as well as the material is very poor

    Unfortunately, this cover started to crack almost immediately after installation. I could literally watch the crack get bigger each day. I had to order a new cover within a month of purchase. I did not drop it or have any other reason it should have splintered like it did.
