As title, I've seen it asked a few times in the other thread but never answered so I'll start a MBP 2021 case suggestion thread - we are all spending maximum money on these laptops so want the best cases possible.

I personally want a permanently attached soft shell case, soft inside to not mark the laptop but hard outer, but also slim as possible!

Also considering something like a dbrand skin ? Any good to stop scratches ?

What have you all seen folks ?
 
I’ve tried cases, skins etc

All of which annoyed me by adding thickness or reducing the quality feel of the device.


What worked for me, ultimately, is a good quality sleeve and being very obsessive about putting it in the sleeve when I was done using it.


On my 2017 MBP I didn’t have a single scratch after 3 years :-)

Worth a try.
 
The Haber London leather cases look nice but its preorder only, but genuinely shocked that no one has proper cases for this..
 
The Haber London ones seem to be in stock now, ordered one for the 16" - there are discount codes out there make sure you use them!

Yeah they look nice but sadly no vegan options so I'll have to skip that one!

I could just get a sleeve like Mr Rockliffe says, I have one for my 2016MBP but that does have a few dings on it, so want to avoid.

It was answered, the answer was: that it is too early for specific skins and cases that fit the new machines.

Probably not so great ones will hit the market soon, more qualities ones a bit later.

This. Having faffed about with various cases over the years I bought a Native Union magnetic sleeve for my latest MBP and it's fantastic. Had it for a while now, my laptop has been up mountains in my rucksack and not a scratch on it. A lot more stylish too and means when you're actually using your MBP you get to appreciate it in all its beauty. The sleeve also doubles up as a protector for the bottom when using it as you just place the laptop on top of it.
 
I also use a sleeve for my MBA (and did for my MB as well). When I sold my MB last year, it was in mint condition, despite being years old.

Just be a little bit careful doing that. It's not such an issue with the M1 devices that run almost completely cold but by putting a laptop on a soft surface, you're removing any air that may ventilate underneath. Laptop feet just raise it slightly from a hard surface, leaving an air gap.

Is the MacBook Pro vegan?

Probably the dumbest reply I ever read, and you get some corkers some times from the usual middle age white folk ! :cry:

The slip case from the website is made of leather..........that's my beef, excuse the pun, so, the skin of a dead cow - no thank you !

As for the MacBook I have no idea ! If it isn't, then it isn't but I need it to do my job - FYI veganism is about trying your best - you cannot be flawless in the philosophy - no one can exist on earth without making an environmental impact.

But a leather slipcase is a pretty obvious one to avoid ;)
 
The Haber London case finally arrived, its a bit flimsy if I am honest :(

No protection either, deffo not worth the £92 incl delivery!!

I am hoping that incase release a good case.
