    Benefits and drawbacks

    • Written by Daniel M from Encino
    • 2 Jan, 2019

    I bought this case in black to prevent scratches and dings to my 12" Retina MacBook. The case is lightweight but did add some bulk to my machine. I pop the case off once every week or two to wipe down my machine. Parts of the case have chipped/broken off over time which prompted me to purchase a second case (this time in clear). I have returned this second case because it felt more bulky and interfered with the hinge (maybe it was a defect?).

    Overall, the case is minimal but detracts from the appearance of the computer. I think buying a good sleeve is a better investment.

    Do Not Buy!!!

    • Written by Alex O from Huddersfield
    • 17 Nov, 2018

    I bought this product around three months ago and it didn't take long before it started to crack which meant it didn't fit well and I constantly had to push it back on. Now the clips have broken and its gone in the bin where it belongs. Very disappointed in this product specially when you buy products from the Apple store you expect them to be a good quality.

    Be careful!

    I bought this case for my use of my MacBook in college and a few years ago the corner of the plastic case broke off into my headphone jack. Nobody could get it out. Not even Apple, they wouldn't touch it. Nor would any "tech" company near me. Finally I got tired of not being able to use my headphone and heated up a straight pin and melted the piece onto it to get the chunk of plastic out. (Risky, I know) While the case protected my laptop very well, it may not be suitable for wear and tear of a college kid who is constantly taking it in and out of a backpack, etc.

    Not worth the money

    I bought this the day I bought my new laptop for college, haven't had it a year and the whole bottom piece won't stay on now. The top clips have broke and its just cheap. Honestly, invest in a better case. Company wouldn't even send me a new one.

    Love the case but...

    Love the black hardshell case but it has one issue. The black version shows your hand and finger prints. Unless you have just washed your hands with soap every time you pick it up it is going to leave print wherever you touch it.

    Cracking... Corners

    • Written by Guy L from Badminton
    • 12 May, 2017

    Expensive but appeared to do the job. Corners start to crack even without any drops, just normal wear and tear - in an out of my bag. Replaced once but the same thing happened. Should be far more durable for the price.

    Great fit and look for MacBook 12"

    • Written by STEVEN C from FLOWER MOUND
    • 23 Apr, 2017

    Went to buy a cover and some accessories for my new MacBook. All they had in stock was this black INCASE model, so that's what I bought. Now that I've been using for a few days I'm glad that's all they had in stock at the Apple Store because this is the perfect case cover. Snug fit, goes on easy and fully protects. It's quite opaque, so if you like your Apple logo to show through don't get the black one (some people are funny about that). I like it because it adds a stealth quality to the MacBook and people don't get curious.

    Owned for 6 months, already is cracked and broken in several spots

    • Written by Kyle S from Colorado Springs
    • 7 Dec, 2016

    I bought this case in June of 2016, and I am already seeing massive failures in several spots. I am never violent with my laptop, it lives in my laptop bag and is only out for charging or for use. Cracks on all sides, and I even had to tape one side. Very disappointed with the durability, but it did provide protection for a reasonable amount of time, hence the 2 star instead of 1.

I just bought my I-Phone 7 plus and I went to the Apple Store to buy a new case and they showed me the InCase Black MacBook case and i bought it and it has worked perfect and it looks Great. You can't go wrong buying this it is good to go.

    Don't waste more money, get this protective case, I did a huge mistake buying one for $12 don't be mistaken price some times equals to quality, if you want to protect your computer get this case, don't waste money on cheaper cases at the end your cost will be higher.
