Will the Speck See Thru Case Fit in the Tucano Sleeve?

I just bought my MacBook Pro 15" and would like to keep it in prestine condition. I have two questions:
1. I want to protect my new purchase as I will be traveling with it, taking it in and out of my work bag, usage around the house, etc. I read the reviews and I think the Speck See Thru will support the daily usage but I'm wondering if the Tucano sleeve will support the compression in my workbag. I love the look of the Tucano Sleeve (sleek in nature: http://www.tucano.it/US/)and would love for them to work together. So, simply put...does anyone know if the Tucano Sleeve will fit over my MacBook Pro with the Speck See Thru case?
2. I can't decide between the clear or the black case. I like the grey look of my MacBook Pro...but is the black a solid black or truly see thru black (almost smokey)?...I think black is a slick color as well.

Yes, the 'Specked' MacBook Pro does fit in the Tucano sleeve that I have (i.e. the Second Skin one)
I have the clear speck case as I love the look of the MacBook Pro's anodized aluminium case but then again, I have not seen the black one and so I cannot comment on it.
Regards,
Rahil Khandker.

  • Speck See-Thru case for MacBook Pro with Retina Display 15 inch

    Hi, I recently purchased the Speck See-Thru case for the MacBook Pro Retina. The case seems to fit very snugly and requires some degree of force to remove. The top half of the case proves to be more difficult than the bottom half. Is it normal that it takes some force to pop off the tabs of the case? I am probably over worrying but just want to make sure. Thanks

    I have a Speck see-thru for mine and yes, they fit quite snugly. Probably to prevent a "rattling" feeling that would feel even worse. As time goes by and you inevitably have to take it off every so often to clean underneath, the snugness goes away.
    Yes, in spite your best efforts, dust somehow finds its way in there and gathers in the corners which soon becomes unbearable and off it has to come. Guess that's the downside of transparency.   Maybe next time I'll get an opaque black model....

  • Speck See Thru Case - Your Thoughts

    I know this question has come up many times about the Speck See Thru series of snap-on shells for the MBP. But after a response to a thread I read the other day in comparison to an answer I received at the Apple Store I'm even more confused.
    The advice in the earlier thread advised against the use of the Speck suggesting that it would cause the MBP to overheat, or at the very least run hotter than usual which would in turn lead to an early demise of the MBP.
    The advice from the Apple Store Genius was quite different though. He said that it's fine to use the Speck, and although the argument that the aluminum case was designed to disipate heat was true, the bottom of the Macbook was insulated and thus does not offer much in heat dispensation anyway. He added that the majority of heat is released through the vent that runs along the hinge which is not obstructed by the Speck.
    So my point is this. If the MBP is running three to five degrees warmer with the Speck, but still within the lower limits of acceptable operating temperture, then whats the harm?
    And, is it safe to assume that since the Speck is sold in the Apple Store it's perfectly ok to use?

    Joseph, greetings:  There is no speculation on my part.  Heat is the bane of all computers.  Aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat.  Plastic is not and will tend to insulate heat rather than dissipate it.  These characteristics conform to the laws of Physics.
    Placing two MBPs side by side will prove very little because that does not meet the requirement of a statistically significant sample. What I am suggesting is analogous to a clinical trial, large enough so that the variables among the individuals is such that the item to be studied for effectiveness becomes the sole differentiating factor being measured. (For MBPs that would be the manufacturing variables and the sole factor is the Speck case.)
    The result would be two failure curves (each curve consisting of date on the X axis and number of MBPs on the Y axis.)  The MBPs (with out the cases) curve will be shifted to the right of the MBPs with the cases.  If I had said by how much the respective failures would be and the differences, that would be speculation, but I did not.
    Even if the MBPs were all operating within Apple specifications, as a group the hotter ones would fail sooner.
    In a nutshell, the more heat a MBP, or any computer is subjected to, the shorter its life span.
    Perhaps we should get together and develop a cooling system that will enable our MBPs outlast us.
    Ciao.

  • Speck See-thru Satin Case

    I have heard that this case, Speck See-thru Satin Case, cracks and splits after only a couple of months... Is this true?? I was going to use this case for school with a sleeve over it and for how expensive it is, I can't afford another one! If this is true, is there another a hardshell case out there that is like the Speck one but more durable for the same price or less? Thanks!

    read reviews and see what the majority of users who have purchased the case have had to say.

  • Does anyone know if they carry the speck see thru covers for the power book

    I'm just curious if anyone knows of anywhere that they have the speck see thru covers for the power book G4. I recently purchased one for my daughters macbook and it really looks cool. I figure that the answer is no because of the age of the power book, but it ever hurts to ask! I have searched on EBAY and came up with nothing!

    If Speck ever did make Powerbook shells, they don't any more.

  • Will an iPod Classic 80gb case fit the 160gb Ipod

    will an iPod Classic 80gb case fit the 160gb Ipod

    The 5th Gen 80GB case would be too loose for the slim 160GB iPod Classic, but maybe you can put in ugly styrofoam fillers. But the 6th Gen 80GB is the same thickness as all 160GB model. So depends on which 80GB model casing you are refering to.
    Dimensions
    5th Gen 80GB = 4.1 x 2.4 x 0.43*
    6th Gen 80GB/160GB  = 4.1 x 2.4 x 0.41*
    Have a nice day!

  • Speck See-Thru Satin Damaging MacBook Pro

    I've seen posts on other forums saying that the Speck See-Thru Satin for the MacBook Pro can actually damage the luster on the computer. Is this true? I know that if sand and dust is caught between the computer and the case, damage can happen that way, but some other people have pointed out that if the computer gets hot enough, the plastic will melt and damage the MacBook's aluminum finish. I am concerned if this has happened to anyone. Thanks in advance for the insight.

    I have one on my MacBook Air and have had no problems. The computer runs warm 24/7 too most of the time powering a webcam and playing music.

  • Will an ipod touch 5g case fit on an ipod touch 4g?

    I currently have an ipod touch 4g, bought in around september of 2011, and i was wondering if i could get a case for it, but most stores offer 5g cases instead of 4g cases, because of the ipod touch 5g.
    Do the ipod touch 5G cases fit on ipod touch 4G?

    The white colour is the only difference, it is still a 4th gen.

  • Does the Tucano sleeves fit the new MacBook Pro?

    Does anyone know if the Tucano Second Skin Microfiber Folder sleeve fit the new MacBook Pro?

    I know that Incase says that their sleeves fit (by stretching), but the Tucano one has the Anti Slip pouch which might make it harder to make it fit.

  • Will an iPhone 3 protective case fit an iPod touch in?

    I've been looking online for a 'The Wanted' iPod touch case, but I can only find an iPhone 3/3GS and  iPhone 4 one. Will either fit my iPod in?

    It will not fit that well. The dimensions are different.  If you have a 4G iPod yo have to worry about the camera.  The following gives you the dimension of the Apple products.

  • Will a new iPod Touch case fit an original iPod touch?

    Yeah, this goes along with my other questions on casing, the case i want and the only kind I can find are new. I need a case for my original iPod

    It will play music, yes (via the dock connection - there's no USB involved). However, if the iHome has a remote control, it will likely not control the IPT. The newest version of the iHome has a remote that does, but older ones won't.
    Hope this helps...
