Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Speck MacBook 13" See-Thru Hard Case - RED
Customer Review: looks great, but . . .
Summary: 2 Stars
purchased the speck orange see-thru shell during the first year for my macbook 13" after seeing my teaching assistant's red one. while i love the color and the way the apple logo shines through, after a short while (don't remember how long), i noticed what appeared to be dust marks on the inside of the shell, both top and bottom. after removing the shell i discovered those "dust marks" weren't! they were/are SCRATCH marks, the exact same thing i bought the shell to prevent! apparently the result of getting dust trapped between the shell and the case that became permanent marks over time from the micro-movements of the laptop inside the shell. unfortunately, i didn't read many reviews before buying it, but quickly discovered after seeing the SCRATCH marks that this is an outcome that has been reviewed unfavorably by others.
since it was too late to do anything about it, i snapped the shell back on and started searching for another protective covering to camouflage the scratches caused by the speck shell . . . in retrospect, if i'd read the unfavorable reviews, i probably would have gotten something like the zagg invisi-shield to put on the computer case BEFORE using the speck shell, just to maintain the look. now i'm just about ready to spring for either a macally shell or the other, rubberized shell, even tho the colors are less attractive to me.
one more thing: the heat build-up using the plastic shell seems excessive to me (too warm to rest on an unprotected lap for more than 2 minutes), although i am not aware of having experienced any undesirable malfunctions that resulted from it. would have given it 1 star, but bumped it up to 2 stars because it really did look good - before the scratches showed up.
