Side by Side Comparison of: GMYLE vs Lightning Power

I got this one to replace a previous one that fell apart. I have to say that the marble design on this item is not as pretty as my old marble case (still nice though), but this one is MUCH more sturdy. Definitely a better product. I would buy again.I will update again if it breaks, but for now I am a happy customer.

Product fit perfectly on my MacBook Air 13 inch. However, does not have rubberized protection. The screen protector is easy to instill on screen, but would recommend using a credit card to air out the bubbles, has a flawless finish otherwise. Would also NOT recommend using the cloth they provided to clean your screen with prior as it will leave streaks on your screen. the case has a snug fit and can make putting your MacBook in and out a bit of a challenge. Otherwise great product, the blue color came out exactly how it does in the picture.

The coolest laptop case around. I love the feel of the soft plastic. The marble design is super awesome and I get compliments on it everyday. With the case, people can't tell that the computer is a Mac or at least they are initially thrown off so I get a lot of comments like, "Woah, what kind of computer is THAT!?" The case looks very class and expensive. Great price point for it. Would recommend and buy again.

I love this hard case. It fits my Macbook snugly without any gaps or movement. I love the rubberized finish on the case and how the keyboard cover stays put without moving. I've had the hard case and the keyboard cover on my Macbook for over six moths and it looks just like the day I got it! And the sleeve is great for when I have it in my book bag and want just a little more protection. Overall it's a great value for the price! Exceeded my expectations.

This is such an amazing product! I bought a GYMLE case for the same mac book pro (13.3in) about a year ago in the Tiffany blue or Robin egg blue color and let me tell you it is sturdy and tough as nails (the color is spot on too!!) Granted, I never dropped my laptop on the ground so I don't know how tough the case is in that scenario, but I can tell you as a full time college student who used their laptop vigorously this will last you a long time! I've had my laptop wobble and get moved around like hell in my bag and backpack and no damage to my laptop or case. I decided to buy another GYMLE case only because I wanted a different color and decided to go with a more subtle look, other than that my previous case from over a year ago is still in great condition and could last another year of school. I do have a TIP for everyone though; I would recommend taking the hard case off every 1-2 months to do some cleaning because you'd be surprised how much dirt and other miscellaneous gunk can build up. It's little to no work at all just a lightly damp paper towel or cloth and give the case and laptop a nice wipe down. I made the mistake of not checking after a whole semester passed and there was food crumbs and sticky stuff a long the edges that had just seeped through with time. So, save your money from the ridiculously overpriced apple products and go with this instead, you won't regret it!

Love the snap on cover, protects my new Mac from vicious attacking pigeons and clumsy blondes with their starbucks. The screen protector is amazing as well. I even forget it's there, it's so clear, and it really helps block away incoming dust missiles and booger bombardments. The soft, plushy case fits like a tight sock, caressing and cradling the laptop and keeps dust away from the all the openings. Now for the fourth piece of the puzzle, the keyboard cover. This guy here is nice too, fits well onto the keys. Unfortunately, it takes some time to get use, I hope. It doesn't feel the same with it on, like a rubber you don't want to use, but you know you have to cause it's better to be safe then sorry. Keeps dust away, helps protect from spills, and looks natural.Definitely recommend this bundle, it's an amazing purchase and everything is awesomesauce. Cheers!

perfect fit

Works great.... I get compliments on it all of the time!

Love, Love, Love this case. Fits perfect and looks good, too!

I Loved my case!, Looks amazing and the texture is also great, it fit in well and no complains at all.

I was a little concerned by reading some of these reviews that the case wouldn't fit properly or the color wasn't a good ombré but I got the hot pink and it fits perfectly and you can clearly tell it is an ombré case! Very easy to put on and came earlier than I expected! Love it!

totally exceeded my expectations. I was just looking to replace an old case that had cracked, and what I got was purple velvet. For a hard case, it is incredibly soft to the touch, and a gorgeous shade of purple. have only had it a week so can't speak to durability, but so far, so very good.

I got this 4 in 1 package for my macbook proHard case, sleeve Bag, Keyboard Cover, and Clear Screen protecter, every thing fits perfectly as well as the screen protector. you'll Need a bit of patience to stick on without any bubble, it only took me about 5 minutes I believe or less.The Sleeve bag use a very good quality material it'll last you a while.not to mention the keybord it great, it helps if your chips or food not liquids the keyboard comes right off. I would recommend for you.

im okay with this product.. does the job it is meant for.. black in color and the apple logo is visible when turned on in a dusky way.. u can identify that it is apple.. the bag is very helpful while travel.. the bottom one has vent king of arrangement which lets the heat flow out but i don't use it because i use a pad with fans instead.. i throw my school bag once i reach home and yet it sustains..

Color: the case is more hot pink than purple, but it is very vibrant and I enjoy how it looks on the MacBook Air.Case: easy to put on!Outer sleeve: it's a tight fit with the case on the MacBook Air as well. It's fine if you just slide it in without using the top flap, but if you want to use the top it takes some pulling.Screen protector: I ended up not using this because 1. That amount of screen surface does not make it easy to apply it without bubbles and 2. It was bent in two places so it was going to have large bubbles no matter what.Keyboard cover: this is actually purple! It's somewhat of a light purple though. Think lavender. It fits the keyboard well and I am pretty satisfied with it.

Satisfied with what I got for the money! Gorgeous matte finish with the marble print. Only downside, I received it today, and there are two spots where the marble case is messed up. I am impressed with the case, and would was to exchange it, but circumstances required me to have a case immediately. Would get again, just disappointed with the two spots.

The case is fantastic, non-slip material, kind of rubbery., with a sleek look I have the black. You can definitely see the apple logo glow through the case. The keyboard protector was flimsy and cheap, must have stretched a bit during shipping didn't fit the keys very well, very loose. The screen protector sucked, had a ding and was bent, just buy them yourself off the rack. Love the Sleeve, fits perfectly snug WITH the rubberized case on my Macbook 13". Don't expect much from the keyboard and scree3n protector, but the sleeve and case def make up for it. All in all for the price, definitely worth the money.

So I read all of the reviews, and was a little nervous but decided to go through with it, because I wanted protection for my new MacAir 2014 13" and they are the only ones who offer the purple color!My package arrived way before the estimated delivery date, last night, in fact. Here's the deal.Covers both fit perfectly- I'm not understanding those of you who say that it did not fit; you must have ordered the wrong size!So the color of the rubber casing is really nice, exactly as pictured. Shows the apple logo through if not a bit fuzzy but overall looks and feels great, still as light as ever.One problem? It smells terrible- like you could get high or something. Hope that will pass in a few days.Keyboard protecters color is light purple and pretty, (though the screens light creates a funny glare off of the color) fits though I am not using it yet because it reeks, as does the outside case. The outside case fits beautifully, smells like nothing I ever smelled before, but again, the scent will hopefully wear off. It's super thin and probably cost 50 cents to make but I'm not so worried bec the rubber case is the real protection here- the outer case is just for carrying (get a better case if you don't have a backpack with cushioning or something) The outer case is not a dark, deep violet but more like a shade or two lighter than rubber case (almost same color, actually. The screen protector- I followed someones advice and used a credit card to get blips and bubbles out but some still remain and it's a little annoying- not really noticable though, and better than ruining up actual screen. Did not receive the "bonus" screen cleaner everyone is raving about.Basically, if you're looking for a cheap cool cover, this is a very good deal, and I already got compliments on the color at Starbucks today :) Good luck!The screen protector

I bought this case in the pink and I love it. I took one star off because on the bottom part of the case the back lip pieces break off easily. It doesn't effect the case but it is annoying. Other than that, this case is great and I will be ordering another one as a backup.

Love the colors and design. The clips that hold it on are a little temprememtal but it is overall a great case with a good fit.

I really like the case design. It is well crafted. The top and bottom pieces snap on easily and fit quite snug. The only downside is that only the top has the beautiful design on it. The bottom piece is solid black.

it does what it's required to do, it fits nice and I like the color. I just wish it was a little easier to clean as it gets fingerprints fast.But I don't think it makes the lap that much heavier.

I really like this case, it's beautiful, and fits well. The only complaints I have are 1) that it doesn't come with directions on how to put it on, I couldn't get the top cover on all the way, I could get either the top by the camera on and not the bottom, or vice versa. 2) I haven't dropped it and I haven't been hard on it, and the bottom cover has already cracked in the corner, almost all the way through.. Otherwise I really, thoroughly like it.

This case is a very good value. I take my computer from home to work and it has stood up to the abuse. The only reason I did not give it a 5 star is the little cushions on the feet slide around and I had to re-glue them.

This 'Hard Case' does have the matte finish that I wanted, to help prevent my MacBook Air from slipping out of my hands. It does however, have an unfortunate amount of small granules of something, within the cover. It is almost like sand or dirt got into the mix, by mistake! You can feel the occasional bump, whenever your hand touches it. I just hope they don't rub off or come loose, and mess up the matte finish. I would return it for a replacement, but need to use it now while on a trip. For now, I'll have to give it just 3 stars.

This case is just ok. The design is much cheaper looking than it appears online, which is a big 'con' for me since the marble design was the reason I purchased this case. However, my biggest problem with this case is how the top part fits on my laptop screen. While there are tabs on the case that locks it onto the laptop screen on the top and bottom, there are none for the sides. So while this issue won't cause the case to come off (at least it appears that way) it seems very unstable not having the sides locked in like most other macbook cases have. Also, the tabs that are on the top and bottom don't seem to be as strong and holding onto the screen as well as some other laptop cases I have purchased for the same price if not cheaper.

Came really quick in the mail, and I love the color, even got other people to compliment the color and ask where I got it, so I advertised for you!On the contrary, some of it cracked a little, the bottom part, in the corner. And I can't seem to get the top part off. I don't use the keyboard pad enough, because A. They muffle the sound coming from your laptop, and B You type much faster without it.I still love the case, but just a warning, buy your stickers BEFORE you buy the case, so that you can put them on.

Shipping was fast, and the case is beautiful. Quick to snap on and fits my Macbook 13' air perfectly. Customer service was quick to reply with any questions. However I would be wary with the actual product. I received the item damaged (the bottom edge of the case was broken off) and the bottom gets dirty easily and is difficult to clean. For $20 its a pretty good deal but even then for $20 I would expect better quality. Probably wouldn't buy again and I'd advise to purchase with caution.

I bought this case to replace my Speck case for my Macbook, and I wish I would have spent the extra 20 bucks for the Speck.One major issue I see coming up with the case is that the bottom half of the case does not fully reach around the back of my computer like the Speck does.The purple case looks almost pink (it is a very light purple). The keyboard cover (which is a deep purple does not match the cover of the case, the same goes for the sleeve. I have not used the sleeve yet but the computer does fit snug inside of the case. It does have a slight smell to it, but what do you expect from rubber?Overall, the case is okay, but it does not offer the same protection that the Speck does.

The top part of the case fits perfectly, but the bottom one does not. It won't pop in places and even if it does, it still comes off. The bottom case also limits mobility. The keyboard cover is nice, doesn't really limit typing for me. The color is bright green, rather than yellow. It's like lime yellow. The cases are fairly soft and nice and the apple logo shows through the top one. Overall, worth the money. Also, the screen protector has tons of bubbles but it's going to protect my screen, at least I hope so. Please fix the bottom case!!

I purchased this cover back in May 2017, only 2 months later the little rubber foots fell off and the film covering the protector is peeling off.

good case but hardback cases apparently weaken the open and close hinge on your laptop says an apple store employee.

Not bad, but stains easily.

Nice color and okay quality for the top part. Bottom cover was broken at the corners after about 3 months. It was too late to return then for a refund...

It didn't fit my MacBook Air correctly. Every time I opened my laptop, the bottom portion would move forward. The feeling of it was kinda rough. I expected it to be smoother. The seller was quick to give a refund.

I was slightly disappointed because it's expected it to be "ombre" and actually fade to white as it is in the picture, but it didn't. It was mostly turquoise.

I thought it would last me longer, but the bottom part fell off and doesn't want to clip onto my laptop anymore. Kinda upset about this! But for the year that I did have it, I got a lot of compliments on the feel and design of it, because it is really nice. Just know that the bottom will eventually fall off!

The marble design of the top half of this MacBook cover is beautiful and fits perfectly. However, it is the bottom side of the case that brought this review down to 2 stars. The bottom half, which is white and not the marble design, did not fit my MacBook Air 13". It was too large and made a terrible creaking noise. I would not recommend this product to others.

Came as described with no flaws. After a few weeks of use, all of the bottom circles that keep the case from sitting flat on the ground broke off. The case's color has also changed over the few months that I have had it. Wouldn't buy again, but I do like the style of the case and have received lots of compliments on it.

The keyboard protector does not allow you to see keys at night even though you Macbook Pro comes with a backlit keyboard. You can not tell when you have the caps lock on day or night. The case is not a great fit and poor quality as it cracked on the edges. TopCase has a much better product than this one.

UPDATE: (6 months later)The edges of the case broke and I was worried that it won't protect my laptop, so I had to buy a new one from a different seller. It does protect from outside scratches but the quality is cheap plastic. It was good for a while.Also, the sleeve has become tattered on the sides, and I was expecting that it would be water proof. It wasn't.I am disappointed with the color I got. The purple I got was a light purple. I was hoping for a deeper color.The quality is okay, nothing grand.

I received my order today and was very surprised to see visible dark finger print smudges on the soft sleeve bag (inside a plastic bag container). I’m not sure if the person who packed it forgot to wash their hands but it was disappointing to open the box and see that.Otherwise, the rest of the materials provided were good. The yellow covers snapped on easily, the keyboard cover fits well (typing on it now) and the monitor cover is thick and translucent.I would love to say that I would recommend or order from this vendor again but the sleeve really put me off.

broke within 6 months

I was so excited to get this case! It was very cute at first but handling it caused it to get smudges all over it. Now it looks like there are always drops of oil over it.. Kinda disappointing.

Color is more pink than purple

It's not a very good fit on the computer. The one purchased at the apple store was more expensive but had a better fit.

Did not fit well. Very attractive and pretty.

It was nice enough when it wasa first put on but after a couple of hours with CLEAN HANDS the fingerprints and other marks on the case were horrible. It looked very ugly with less than a day of use and just carrying the laptop between rooms. This is getting returned.

I really love the style and feel of this case, however the quality and durability of this product is very disappointing. I've only had this case for a month and it is already broken. One of the connector pieces broke off in two weeks and the other one is cracked and will fall off any day now. (If you don't understand the piece I'm talking about, look at the pictures.) I didn't drop my case and I'm not particularly hard on it or anything. I am very disappointed as I'm going to have to buy a whole new case just a month after I bought this one.

The hardcore and sleeve for the laptop was fine. BUT the screen protector was horrible. At first I thought it was okay, but just recently I felt that it was time for me to take it off and apply a new one... it left the sticky residue all over my Macbook screen. I tried water and soap, canola oil, basically everything I could find on the internet and it still on my screen. I ended making an appointment with the Genius Bar.. so we will see how that goes.

When I purchased this product, I was expecting a beautiful, real-looking case of good quality. I was totally wrong. Not only does the case look grainy and pixelated, but when I attempted to contact the seller and return it the first time, they asked what was wrong and didn't seem to understand what I was talking about. The second time, after I explained my problems with this purchase, they didn't even respond at all. Also, when I read the reviews, I was expecting the Apple logo to shine through the case brightly, but it is very faint, even when it is in a totally dark room. At least the case does a good job protecting my MacBook and the shipping was quick.

didn't work. tossed the keyboard. The face didn't work. Loved the case b/c it stretched enough regardless of reviews. Bought an awesome lion vinyl for the front on etsy and wasted money on this. I believed the reviews but I think the bulk the reviews so my 2010 Mac that is not a Pro didn't fit it. Boo.

I made sure it was compatible with my laptop when I made the purchase. I was excited when I received the item but unfortunately it didn't fit as advertised. I will say I loved the color and the return and refund was hassle free.

The hard case covers were about 1 inch too big for my Mac Book Pro 13.3"! Didn't they measure these things before they sent it out?? The clear LCD screen protector was too big as well. But the rest of the contents of the box were good. The keyboard protector fit perfectly and the soft cushion case was also good. But be warned that there is no replacement option for this item. I'd like to keep the items that fit but there's no option for replacement/exchange, the only option is return for a refund.But then in able to return, the packaging says in fine print that all items have to be UNOPENED... WTF?I might not return because of the hassle of having to return through UPS (the only option was to return through UPS).

Make sure you like the color or get hit with a 50% restocking fee

Cheap

Love the color, just doesn't fit right

Not what expected. It does not fit the MacBook Air. The cover completely covers the apple on the top of the laptop. It's not like the picture as the picture shows the apple. Very disappointed in this item.

Broke after 2 months. Corner cracked

The case was fine but the 4 rubber grips on the bottom fell off within a month. I went and purchased a Kuzy which is what I should have done the first time.
