FAQs

What specific Macbook Pro models is this case compatible with?

This case is designed for the Macbook Pro 13" 2020 models featuring Touch ID and the M1 Chip, specifically identified by model numbers A2289 and A2251.

Does the case protect the screen from scratches?

Yes, the case features a clear, rigid polycarbonate panel on the top cover that provides a layer of protection against scratches for the device's screen.

Is the case difficult to install?

The case is designed for a snug, custom fit. Installation involves snapping the top and bottom halves onto the device. It's generally straightforward, but ensure all edges are securely clicked into place.

Will this case add a lot of weight to my Macbook Pro?

While it provides robust protection, the design aims to be lightweight. It will add some weight and bulk compared to an unprotected device, but it is balanced to offer substantial protection without being excessively heavy.

Can I clean the case easily?

Yes, the case can be cleaned with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For the clear panels, a mild glass cleaner applied to a cloth can be used for smudges.

Does the case interfere with any ports or functions?

No, the case is designed to provide a perfect fit and ensures full access to all device functions, ports, speakers, and buttons.

What material is the case made from?

The case is constructed from a combination of Polycarbonate (PC) for rigidity and Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) for impact absorption, along with a textured grip wrap.

Troubleshooting

Case does not fit snugly.

Ensure all corners and edges of both the top and bottom case halves are fully snapped into place. Check for any debris that might be preventing a secure fit. Verify that you have the correct case model for your specific Macbook Pro.

Buttons or ports are difficult to access.

Confirm that the case is correctly aligned on the Macbook Pro. The design should allow full access; if not, re-seat the case. Ensure no foreign objects are obstructing the ports.

Clear screen panel is smudged or has fingerprints.

Wipe the clear panel with a soft microfiber cloth. For tougher marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for screens or a very mild glass cleaner applied to the cloth, not directly to the panel. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Hinge area feels stiff or restricted.

Ensure the MAXGrip wrap is correctly aligned and not bunched up. The case is designed to protect the hinge; minor stiffness upon initial use may lessen over time, but significant restriction could indicate improper installation.
