Customer Review: Great but not 100% perfect!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought the red see-thru Hard Case for MacBook Pro 15" because I wanted something to, at least aestethically, protect my investment from scratches.
There have been two different batches of this product shipped, one with an extra millimeter on both sides of the monitor cover and one without those millimeters.
The one sold on Amazon was the first kind, so my only complaint is that the product shipped to me is one of those that had those extra millimeter on both sides that wouldn't almost allow at all the monitor to open (not enough to see it anyway).
I had to take those extra millimeters off from both sides using a nail file.
This is a really time-consuming task!
After taking off those extra millimeters from both sides, the monitor opens fully and, it protects my investment.
One thing is true from the start though: it is easy to install, it snaps on and stays on very tight.
To take off the part of the case that protects the cover of the monitor, you have to act on the rear of the computer using your fingernails or a very thin object (not sharp or hard, or your investment will be scratched).
You can easly take the bottom part off too, but you have to act on the right part of the computer that is visible, the ports on the right side, and lift a little your computer using your fingernails or a very thin object (not sharp or hard, or your investment will be scratched).
Overall (after these modifications), I love this product!
The ports on the right are all easly accessible, including the key lock.
The ports on the left are all easly accessible too, you only have to play a very little bit with the MagSafe to insert it, but since it's magnetic, you won't really have too much problems!
On the front, the only thing that might be not 100% accessible, if you have big fingers, is the opening latch for the monitor.
