THE GOOD
* the zip is actually really good quality, which is important if you need to open and close quickly and without getting stuck while you are on the go
* the outer fabric is pleasant to the touch and looks good with its fine, subtle pattern of dark grey on black
* the grooves on the surface allow a good grip, making it easier to pick up and carry; it also makes look modern and non-boring (at least for my tastes)
* the wrist strap is a very handy if you need to walk with your laptop
THE NOT SO GOOD
Based on a MacBook Air
* the shell rests directly in contact with the laptop, there is no margin for pressing the case without also pressing the laptop
* to make matters worse, the internal padding is very thin, almost non existent in correspondence of the ridges
* the internal measurements are too big by half an inch for a MacBook Air: the laptop has room to move around, even when inserted into the elastic pocket inside, which you might not have time to do if you are in a hurry; this greatly reduces the protection of the corners, because they will hit the inside of the case after having floated around
CONCLUSIONS
This case does not offer the expected protection from compression on the flat surfaces, nor from falls on the corners. It's OK in other respects, but if you are looking for a shockproof case this is not it, despite its rugged looks.
