Hardshell Case on Your Macbook

When you've invested in a high-end laptop like a MacBook, it's natural to agonize over the best way to keep it safe. Do you slap a protective hardshell case onto the pricey computer? Or would that detract from the sleek look and feel you've paid so much for? Could a case, in an ironic twist, actually end up damaging the MacBook's hardware? I had to navigate that dilemma the summer after I graduated from high school, when I finally splurged with my saved-up grocery-store cashier earnings on the ultimate luxury: a 2017 MacBook Pro that I hoped would get me through my college years and beyond. Despite the MacBook's reputation as tough, the space-gray laptop still felt delicate in my hands. The next logical move was to buy an all-over hardshell case.
