Reviews for Moshi 13" iGlaze Shell Case for MacBook Air

I was skeptical of buying a shell case for my new MacBook Air, but decided to give the Moshi case a try. It has proved to be a spectacular purchase. First of all, it seems almost invisible on the Air -- the clear/frosted finish makes the overall look of the computer virtually unchanged. Second, the fit and construction is superb. Easy to install, yet the fit is snug and absolutely form fitting. Finally, it does not impact the use of the Air at all. No binding in the back when open, easy to open and close. This is an absolute winner of a product. One bit of advice: Before installing, clean the outside of the Air very carefully. The cover is clear enough that even small bits of dust show through. No sense in having a beautiful look marred by fingerprints or stray dust.

Fits sleekly, provides traction, completely protects the exterior shell, and slightly buffers the sharp edges of the front/top (My only problem with 'Air'). But; It illuminates around the screen edges because of the lit Apple logo in the back. It also weighs down the top a little so it'll go back/forward making sometimes difficult to hold a position. These are more-so problems with the 'Air' than Moshi's product. All in all, I'd suggest it and it's definitely needed, unless you'll never move your MacBook.

Like the title says, the iGlaze is perfect! Fits nicely without adding any bulk. It's almost as if there is nothing there. I got the translucent version. Also has a nice texture. Best case out there for the Air.

I bought the translucent case for my MBA 13" just to prevent any scratching or scuffing. I ended up buying the the translucent case because I didn't want a case that would make my MacBook look cheap; this was definitely the right choice! The case fits great and it is not slick like the Speck cases. It also doesn't take away from the beauty or thinness of the laptop itself. The case was a little pricey, but it is well worth the money.. I would buy it again without any hesitation!

I purchased this moshi case even though it was really expensive because the reviews were really good. But whenever I open or close my macbook, it makes a sound. I figured out that the right top of the bottom case is little bit longer than the left one and thats why whenever I close or open it it will scratch the screen. I regret paying 60 dollars for a macbook case when I can buy a cheap one somewhere else..

I had been searching for a hard case for some time, but was turned off by the negative reviews of InCase and Speck's cases. At my time of purchase, the Moshi had few reviews, though it has clearly become the top option. It fits flawlessly, adds little-to-no bulk, and maintains the visual appeal of the Air. I have the translucent, and you can only tell a case is on the unit after careful inspection. Definitely recommended!

This Product is very pleasing to me for a few reasons. 1. The product fits very well on my mac book air 13 inch. 2. The casing for this makes it look like nothing is even on it so, it still has a very modern look. 3. There are 4 rubber points on the back of the mac book air to help it not move when your typing or whatever it is you may be doing with. 4. The case allows you to still make use of all of the ports on both sides of your mac book air. & 5. you're still able to open your mac book air without having the cover get in the way of opening it.

Before I found this case I tried at least 6 speck cases over the period of about 4 months each broke within either a few seconds or a couple weeks of looking at the darn (because apparently I cant use the actual word in a review...) thing.
I was on the look out for months before I found this case finding the only other options were more speck cases or the hammered hard shell case which makes it look like you just bedazled your laptop, when I finally found the moshi with good reviews i was hesitant at first but went for it.
I have had my moshi case now for over a month and couldn't be happier with it, it looks ballin', it feels awesome and makes my laptop look better than before. Apart from the fact that it costs $60 (which it is well worth) it is perfect. Low profile fogged up a just the right amount and clips that don't snap off.
I would highly recommend this case to anyone with a macbook who doesn't want it to look like heck (or that one) after getting it scuffed up or dropped after a few months.

Although you pay a bit more for this case, you get so much out of it. The look is great and is designed perfectly. It basically disappears onto the computer while still protecting it, it adds very little bulk, and is very durable.
