- Dropping or damaging your expensive MacBook isn't fun - that's why cases were invented. However, good cases can be hard to find, so in this video I take a look at one of the most highly rates protective laptop cases for your M1 (or Intel) MacBook Air or MacBook Pro.
This particular case is called the ProCase, and is a rugged design with integrated kickstand.

Nice!
We use similar cases for chromebooks at our school, as the IT guy who has taken off many of these, be careful when taking it off because its easy to damage the screen. Sometimes you will have to pry it off over time as the plastic ages and warps.
Definitely take the case off and clean it, dust and other particles will scratch up the paint/aluminum on the MacBook if you leave it on too long.

@@RaviPatel-my2mo Yes it is
@@TrentonsTech do u have any suggestions for a better MacBook m1 air case?
I’ve found that the light scuffs on the front and back polished out quite easily. I also found that dust trapped between the case and the metal was causing quite a lot of the scuffing.
I have been using a case by Baseus on my MacBook pro 2016, its been more than 4 yrs and still is pre strong. Recently got a m1 MacBook pro as a replacement from apple and the case fits, but the new MacBook Pro has a very small difference in measurements, so the case just fits, a bit tighter tbh. I tried looking for Baseus cases, but they stopped making now I think, would give them 5 star.
this case is still attach to my MBP 2017 for 2years. Cheap, good protection and I like the stand, it make more convenient while using on table.
Why no one is talking about the corner clips of bottom case come between the screen and the base, it actually slightly bend the hinges,
When I got my first MacBook it was so thin it terrified me to handle it at all so I immediately got a case for it lol. Been using the same Mosiso case for 3 years. The only problem I had with it is that the little feet on the bottom part were apparently glued on and came off but using it without them hasn't made any difference. This case looks like it has a bit more protection than the Mosiso one, and the foldable feet to get it at an angle are interesting... but it also doesn't look as nice and minimal... hmm
I had got a case few years ago for my 2014 MBP 13, the lid case extends to the back and it obstructs the air flow, it got to a point where, the fans would spin still the temps won't go down, I had to remove the case and never used a case since.
I like that one! Especially the fact that it is transparent on the top and looks sleek. Does it also create a small gap between the screen and the keyboard that protects it from staingnate issues?
100% agree, aluminum is a soft metal. a case and a sleeve is essential if you move your laptop alot. plus it helps alot if you do the thermalpad mod
i got a gold one 😎😎😎😎 not gonna break😳😳
How does it help the thermal pad mod?
Thanks Liam. That case looks pretty ugly to be honest, but I guess it provides protection again damage.
It looks like a nice case. Thanks for the review.
Thank you for sharing.
I got this one a couple of months ago, I can vouch for it
I'd like to ask if you regularly carry your MacBook in a backpack. Mine has a padded laptop compartment and I use it, but I'm worried that I might somehow bend the device if I'm not very careful about keeping my back straight. What's your experience? Thanks for the nice videos!
for long term usage, is it still ok? I think I've been using hard case macbook and the macbook can't be closed properly, it feels like a tiny gap. what do you think?
I like your videos regarding the MacBooks!
I have this case, the only irk for me is the fact that you can't really use a dongle that's attached to the mac. Luckily my hub is the cable one as he mentioned. Other than that, this case is awesome. Evenmore for its price. Loving it
They just came out with the 14’ MBP one! Very excited
Great content as always, keep it up!
Do you recommend putting screen protector on a macbook pro?
thanks for review! how do you think will it be. harmful for hinges?
I bought this one when I first bought my macbook back in 2018, and it is still holding up till today. Definitely worth it.
Has the hinge gotten any worse with the case or not?
Have you had any issues with a case on your MacBook? I have read that some can cause issues with the hinge, making it loose over time. And that dust and dirt can get in the case and scratch the computer. Should I be worried about this or will it be fine to put a case on my MacBook? Instead of a case I might just get a computer bag or sleeve to put the MacBook in while I’m transporting it, and a dbrand skin to protect against scratches. Which would be a batter option?
What about a case with storage for the little external drive?
Good day! What are your opinions about keyboard covers for macbook pro M1?
WOW, So happy im here early, great video btw, im gonna consider this case.
Hi. Do you think cases makes de laptop hotter?
What about use this case with attachable usb-c hub?
You can get an extender that allow those flush hubs to work
Will it worsen thermal mod on M1 mac air?
What about a sleeve? I got the new Air thanks to your videos, and I'd like to buy a sleeve or bag, so that I can put the laptop in my backpack without having it scratched. Anyway awesome video as always. Keep up the good work!
Sleeve is a good idea, I have a hard case that I sometimes put my MacBook in for travel. Although, if your MacBook is going to get scratched it's always when I have it out of the sleeve 😂
Been using it on my MacBook Pro (M1) for a few weeks now. So far, so good. Flip-stands are nice, but there are no rubber tips on them and the machine slides a bit on smooth surface.
So it could work with MacBooks with touchbar?
is there any descent sleeves for the mcbook??
If you can answer what is that design on the wall . Is it made of cement or what? Actually we are building our home and it looks quite good
Does the clips of the casing scratches the Macbook when you take them off? Because most cases do. Please let me know. Thanks!
Is it really advisable to use a Case for Macbooks? I'm really confused about some people saying it will ruin the laptop. I need help. Thank you!
I'm actually considering the Tech21 Evo Clear case
my thing is if it doesn't provide much protection when dropping it, then what's the point of buying it?
Is it easy to detach the case?
They should make a case with a fan for thermal pad modded airs
Put an extra battery and ssd in the meantime
Just when my new mac arrived you uploaded this video 😮
Your delivery driver told me your Mac finally arrived, so I made this video just for you
@@CreatedTech 😂 btw mine too
is it trapped the Hot temp on mac air??
The rear of your case is not fully attached. You need to press the clips on the back.
I got that it was better to use a microfibre lined sleeve case instead and leave the MBP without a case in general.
I heard that too. Did you get a sleeve?
Will this work on the modded MBA?
Should add Kensington lock hole ...
Is this model the new M1 ..?
i have one of these cases. the exact one you are reviewing in this video. durability is not great. the clips that hold the case to the computer are quite fragile and will break right away.
I've been using this case for a while and have taken it off my MacBook several times. The clips are holding up fine, they really don't seem that flimsy. But, it will be interesting to see how they hold up over a year of usage for example.
Nice one Liam, now all I need is a MacBook
First of all thank you for your all great videos , I noticed something strange on some of your videos specially this one , some parts has a Glitch effect in 1:51 8:04 9:00 9:41 And I think I missed some parts also have The same weird glitch , did you edit this video with your MacBook M1 ?
Good catch! I didn't notice that either. It seems to be a CZcams issue. The video doesn't have any of those weird glitches, I just checked the rendered version now. This one was edited on a PC.
I don't notice anything on those times you give.
brother.... this case is not available in India 😔
why this video has some glitches?
Good gadget awesome 👏
I'm using the same case right now and once you put it on, you can't take it off. You must put much pressure and I'm worring that I can break my screen
I have this same case as well... Got it on Amazon germany for 24 euro and I'm very happy with it!
For how long? Still have it?
@@Sarge22fox still working perfectly
I had this case then switch to the Incase hard case for M1 MacBook Air.
@D37fit and which one was good
@@emmawatson5481 prefer the Incase. Fits much better
For whatever reason, when the MacBook is inside the case, it reminds me of the iPad Pro and it’s Smart Keyboard 🤔.
I put a skin on my MacBook from dbrand. Case is too much I feel. The skin was fairly difficult to get on perfectly though.
I personally don't use a case, but I know a lot of clumsy people out there who absolutely should consider one...
@@CreatedTech haha true. One of my friends is a total klutz
Someone please help me out here: my macbook air M1 won't open without using both of my hands. Is it normal.( This is my first macbook ever)
😂😂😂😂why
I’m looking for a new case for my MacBook Air. The problem I find is when plugging in the charjenpro usb hub with a case on. Unless I buy an extender.
Also, with the top case. Does the case fit the other way? Sometimes one side has 3 clips and other has 2,
I thought hard shell cases cause more harm on the new macbooks than good.
Why are people saying cases are bad for macs ?
I had to get a dbrand skin for mine because it was getting scratched all over due to my cats
Recently I bought a macbook air M1 and used a case like this it made the hinge tight I called apple support and searching on reddit and came to the conclusion it was because of the case macbooks are not designed to work with case. Currently it's in service center 😭😭😭
Same! I bought the similar case for my macbook air m1...but after watching so many videos saying their mba had problem with the hinges, i immediately removed the case. Now i used the skin and sleeve. Sometimes i'm tempted to use the case but yeah... not gonna compromise my mba..
Was mulling over buying a case but watching videos and reading reviews online is making me think a skin is better than a case to go with my padded case.
Wuu i bought the same like a month ago
man, you didnt even clip on the bottom case properly ahhaha
Do the clips next to the hinge impinge when closing the lid?
I mean the corner ones
I'm really clumsy and HAVE dropped (and shattered) other laptops (mainly the same asus 3 times lol) before but I would never buy a case cause i hate them. I would go no case on a phone but i'm THAT clumsy
fyi, i hate asus every asus product I have used has had every problem under the sun.
One give away pleassse !!!
That case is hideous! No thanks.
bruh, a ripoff of my ibacks macbook case
"resell value of macs is really high" lmao, I bought mine for 2.8k, and it goes nothing over 1k after 2 years. LOL
Terrible
ugliest thing ive ever seen!!!
