    Sleeve needs revisions

    The strap on the sleeve was closed up inside my macbook pro which cracked the screen internally. I had to take my laptop to the Apple Store. They had to replace the entire top of the laptop not just the screen. Thanks to Apple Care it only cost $99 but that was a hard lesson learned. The stitching on your side straps where it comes together is very hard so when that closed up in between the top and bottom of the laptop had no room with how tight the sleeve is. I returned this case immediately after leaving the Apple Store. I had my laptop for only 2 weeks when this happened. The sleeve is also hard to keep clean.

    A solid case for my laptop, but there's no room for any peripherals such as mouse, power cords, etc. If all you need is a case for your laptop, this is a good choice.

    The side straps caused damage to my retina display

    The side straps that hold it together on the left and right side when you have it open get caught when you close to MacBook making pressure on the display which resulted in bleeding and I had to send my MacBook and to get a new display I would like a refund even though it’s past the 14 days. This is unacceptable I’ve had the MacBook Pro 2019 15 inch For only a month and it damage my screen when it’s supposed to protect it I will be either in contact with Best Buy or the manufacturer for compensation

    This sleeve feels well-built and protective without being bulky, which is exactly what I wanted for travel and daily carry. The padding and structure give it a premium feel, and it slides easily into a backpack without catching. I liked that it protects the laptop well while still looking professional. If I had to nitpick, it’s a bit snug depending on your exact laptop size, but overall it’s a great sleeve.

    I recently purchased the Laptop Case for my Apple MacBook Pro 16”, and I am truly impressed with its quality and functionality. This case has proven to be the perfect protection for my valuable device. The first thing that caught my attention was the sleek and minimalist design of the case which is ideal for taking it to business meetings or simply adding a touch of style to my everyday life. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, the case offers exceptional protection for my MacBook Pro. It is padded on the inside to prevent scratches and bumps, and it features a secure closure that keeps my laptop in place safely. It even has an additional compartment for storing documents or cables, which is very convenient. The functionality of the case is also worth mentioning. It has precise cutouts that allow easy access to all the ports and buttons of my MacBook Pro without having to remove it from the case. This is especially useful when I need to quickly charge my laptop or connect external devices. Furthermore, the case is lightweight and easy to carry. It doesn’t add unnecessary bulk to my MacBook Pro, and I can comfortably carry it in my bag or briefcase without feeling weighed down. In summary, the Laptop Case for Apple MacBook Pro 16” has exceeded all my expectations. Not only does it offer exceptional protection and convenient functionality, but it also has a stylish design that perfectly complements the aesthetics of my MacBook Pro. I highly recommend this case to all MacBook Pro owners seeking a reliable and stylish protection solution.” I hope this review is helpful. If you need further assistance, feel free to ask!

    I’ve been using this Thule Gauntlet sleeve with my MacBook Pro and it does exactly what I wanted: it feels rigid and protective without being overly bulky. The shell is sturdy enough that I’m not worried about tossing it in a backpack, and the interior keeps the laptop from sliding around. The zipper runs smoothly and the case opens wide, so it’s easy to take the laptop in and out quickly. Overall, it’s a simple, well-built sleeve that gives me good peace of mind when I’m carrying my laptop around.

    Such a great purchase for my macbook pro 16". Great to use in the field and solid design. One other note, A 16" macbook pro WITH an incase cover fits perfectly inside. An other nice plus is that the case opens up and stays open with the laptop due to ribbons in the corners that keep the case from opening all the way up flat. I wouldn't operate all day with the laptop in the case due to potential overheating issues but when out in the field for quick photo edits, it provides wonderful protection for your pricey investment. A bit expensive on the MSRP side but worth it for the added protection (I purchased on sale at Best Buy though, which made the price more reasonable)

    Picked this up shortly before heading out of town on a cross-country trip as I wanted something to protect my new MacBook Air. This case is tough enough to provide good protection for the laptop but still slim enough to fit inside another laptop bag - perfect for keeping the laptop protected at airport security checkpoints. I like the hard-wearing rubberized exterior. Interior is nice and soft with ample padding, and you can use the laptop with it still in the case. The blue color is a nice match for my Macbook as well. I got this on sale for 50% off and for that price it was an absolute steal.

    Awesome Sleeve!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Well made Sleeve!! The raised section on the top and bottom create a pocket of air for protection. Also underneath the zipper is a lip on both sides. What’s cool about that lip is when the zippers close they bring the two lips together creating a barrier all around the computer inside. The materials are top notch. The zippers are rugged and smooth and the overall look and feel are great! Def fits great for my 16” MacBook Pro

    The case has been used for travel and it has weathered very well. It is easy to put the case in a backpack or bag and pull it out to use with your laptop still inside, like a clamshell. It has been easy to clean and has not stained even with use at various travel locations. It does not have any additional pockets for accessories but It offers good value based on the laptop protection and durability of materials.

    Very well made, have great experience with Thule and this is no exception. Can fit the big macbook easily. It's quite large, but feels protective. Kind of expensive but that's the brand.

    I got this case so that I wouldn't have any worries traveling, and it's been great. It fits my macbook perfectly. I did put a sticker on the top so that I would know which way to lay it down. There were some reviews that said the side loops get caught in the the computer, but that is completely user error and I haven't had a problem with that at all.

    This is by far one of the most protective laptop sleeves I’ve owned. The hard shell adds serious peace of mind when traveling, and the interior is soft but snug enough to keep my MacBook Pro from shifting. Zippers are high quality, and it looks professional too. Great fit for 15–16” laptops. Highly recommend if you’re on the go and want more than just a soft case.
