You can mix-and-match these cases! - This is by far the best laptop case I've gotten for my Mid-2012 Macbook Pro. I was previously using a rubberized case from GMYLE, but I didn't like the rubberized after a while because it gets gross. The rubberized finish really holds oils and ink smudges. The rubberized finish also scratches off fairly easily, showing the glossy plastic underneath. This case is exactly what I was looking for and even more! I was wanting just a simple, smooth plastic case. This case is far better, though. It has no finish on it that can scratch off, yet it does have a matte look and feel. It feels great and I am confident it will not show signs of use easily, if ever! This case is also really nice in how clear the logo shines through. I know that's a big deal for some people, and I cannot express nor capture in a photo how crisp the logo shows through!!! (And I even have the BLACK color in this case!) I will definitely be buying this case when I want a change again. There's so many great color options to choose from, too! Also, I can't believe I didn't realize this before, but you can totally mix-and-match colors of this case because it's two pieces. So you could have a different color for the top and bottom which is really cool! (How cool would it be to do a Pokéball look with a red top and white bottom?) Again, I highly recommend this case because of its look and feel. PERFECT! Review: WOW !!! I love this case !! - This case exceeded all expectations. It fits perfectly, looks beautiful, and feels wonderful. I ordered the black after reading a review that said the black was more like charcoal, and indeed it is. Solid black can look cheap, this deep charcoal looks amazing, and the Apple logo is clearly visible when the laptop is powered on. (In dim light the case does look black) The best thing is the handfeel. Smooth, but not slippery or hard. It has a very gentle amount of grip that feels perfect to me. I think silicone can feel gummy, and hard plastic too slippery and cheap. A huge benefit is the fact that this case DOES NOT SHOW FINGERPRINTS with normal use, which I find amazing. Overall, simply an incredible value. I would pay double for a case as good as this. ## Features - The case was designed ONLY to be compatible with MacBook Pro 13 inch (model: A1278, with CD-ROM), Old Version Release Early 2012/2011/2010/2009/2008, NO Cut Out design, transparency is different from color to color. - Please kindly check the model number "A1xxx" on the back of the laptop before your purchase, make sure you choose the exact same model number as the listing title stated "A1278". - WARNING: This case is NOT compatible with other model laptops.
