" ... That said, it shows grease and hand oils like no other. ... The slightly grippy material that makes it so easy to pick up and transport sadly has the downside of being a magnet for oils, drips, drops and whatever you might have around. ... I can recommend it easily so long as you're forgiving of exterior's smudge-prone appearance! ... "
" ... It's matte finish also prevents against surface cracks and has a very clean finish, while also allowing the grey color of my Macbook to show through. ... "
" ... I liked how the case looked and felt but after a few weeks I wanted to take it off and clean the case/my laptop. ... "
" ... The case is very pleasing to the eye the one thing that bothers me is that it attracts oils from the hand very easily. ... Even if my hands are clean I can see the oil marks on the case but it isn't too bad. ... "
" ... Simple and clean case. ... "
" ... It leaves no scratches on the edges and you can see the apple symbol through it ... "
" ... Has a clean look. ... "

" ... Pretty standard MacBook Pro case. ... "
" ... My daughter loves the clear and sturdy cover. ... "

" ... This cover is far better quality than $49 Speck - SmartShell Hardshell Case ... "

" ... The only negative I could see is that the screen closes down without any force. ... "
" ... The plastic is not as clear as I thought it will be and it adds weight to the screen, to the point is the screen is half open it will close or be moved by the weight. ... "
" ... Afraid that I'll break my screen if I keep pushing. ... "
" ... However, when you close the laptop, the tab at the top of the screen does not dovetail with the bottom and the case does not close flush. ... "
" ... Update : I had the screen cover on the wrong side, bad judgement on my part. ... "
" ... too tight on the top portion of screen. ... "
" ... The material of this case is good, but the problem is that it does not allow the computer screen to open fully. ... "

" ... Giving 4 stars because it catches the finger prints easily. ... "
" ... Fingerprint magnet but works and fits perfectly ... "
" ... It is a fingerprint magnet and I always manage to push on the clips with my palms since they are located on both side of the track pad. ... "
" ... The only thing I think could be improve is that it is easy to get finger prints, even on the matte versions, but other than that I`m very happy with the purchase. ... "
" ... Another trade-off is that fingerprints, palm prints are quite noticeable. ... "
" ... Love it, some reviews have mentioned this case being cheap and as well as being a fingerprint magnet. ... "
" ... My only complain is that this case, at least the clear one, catches finger print quite easily. ... "

" ... You can figure out the bottom because you can see the cutouts that allow access to the four USB-C (Thunderbolt 3) ports. ... My main concern was whether the cut-outs on the sides allowed USB-3-to-USB-C adapters adequate access to the two USB-C ports on each side. ... So far, all my adapters fit, and with four ports and increasing use of Thunderbolt-3, I see no problems . ... "
" ... This case also allows space for the two Thunderbolt-3 plugs on each sides, including space enough to use a USB to Thundersbolt-3 converter alongside a power plug. ... "
" ... It also protects the computer very well and leaves good openings for the ports. ... "
" ... Ports are still accessible and the computer opens and closes normally with the cover on. ... "
" ... However, the Apple Dongle works just fine and standard USBC cables will plug in with room to spare. ... "
