Two notes:
1. My camera only lets me record up to 3 minutes of video, so it cuts off at the end. 2. The case is a lot more transparent than my video shows; you can clearly see the Apple logo lit up in the back in real life. The case gets darker when you put it on the laptop though. I love it, looks really sharp!

Nice video
Informative and short.I kind of got scared how you treated the MBP in the video though. |

For $50, it wasn't durable enough for me. The plastic is too soft and too prone to scratches from minor contact that would never scratch an MBP.
After 6 months my MBP didn't have any scratches. I bought one of these and after a week or 2 of use under the same conditions as my MBP, it had scratches all over it and looked really bad. It looked like I beat the crap out of my MBP when I only keep it on my desk, a desk at school or coffee shop or in my Incase sleeve. So basically this $50 shell was visually unappealing enough to be rendered unusable after just a couple weeks.
