Speck cases are useless!


i got new macbook pro in december, , knew need case protect investment. found speck hardshell case great choice. i've read ton of stories of people had , saved macbook when dropped it. read story on apple's site got in car accident , macbook spotless because of case.

got case few days after got macbook. took damp wash cloth clean macbook (avoiding ports , other exposed areas, of course) , dried off, did same case, no dirt trapped inside of it. put on , impressed! barely weighed down , glad still see gorgeous brushed aluminum unibody because chose clear case.

, few days ago decided i'd use without case because @ home , wanted see felt again. thought i'd check see how nice , spotless looked after months of use because of case. horror, wasn't case @ all.

first thing noticed slight mark on front side.

not big deal. annoying it's not major.

took @ lid.

found 3 'pinhole' (?) marks near bottom of it.

how in hell did happen?


thing pissed me off, dent.

why? how?


not once did ever drop macbook, maybe light toss of on bed would've hit bottom anyway (which way, has no marks @ all). why these marks happen? can understand dirt getting caught in when took off there nothing cause 3 holes or dent, , shouldn't have clean dirt out of every 2 weeks keep marks happening.

bought solely protect macbook, in better condition if never put case on anyway!

there can this? doubt speck help, don't see how it's fault when product paid $50 didn't advertised.

else owns 1 of these, careful.
 

i've used speck cases. never had problem. flat, dent caused sharp , heavy... have clean them once month prevent scratches i've never had chips. used them since pre-unibody mbp days without incident. have had better luck satin models, however, in regard cracking , scratching far superior.
