Product Description |

great product...mostly... |
|
The palm rest and touchpad button covers are great...good fit, easy to apply. I was also able to easily peel up and then reset the palm rest cover easily. The only problem I have with the product is the film that is intended to cover the touchpad itself. I changed the texture of the touchpad with the end result being a slight "stickier" feel. I removed the touchpad film after about a day of trying it out. |

Top notch product with a hiccup |
I purchased this product to protect my new 15" Macbook Pro's palm rest area and mouse button from discolouration. The product serves this purpose exceptionally well, and its matching colour scheme allows me to use my laptop without distraction. Here's a more detailed look.
1) Material/Quality
The palm and mouse button protection are made out the same sturdy, flexible plastic material which matches the interior aluminum of the Macbook pro in colour, but not in texture. The guard has a pleasant grainy texture instead, and does not feel like cheap plastic. While the cut of the button piece is exact, the palm guard gives you maybe 0.2mm of space (almost unnoticeable) in portions of the trackpad area. Overall, an excellent fit.
My main problem with this set is the thin silvery film that is included as a trackpad cover. It is made out of a completely different material from the other two pieces, and seems thin enough not to interfere with trackpad sensitivity. I initially applied it for a day, to test out whether the trackapad is affected. Unfortunately, I found that it was. The trackpad was no longer as sensitive to tapping, and it would sometimes take me 3 attempts to double click. If you naturally have a heavy tap, you probably wouldn't be affected by this problem. But I'm a light tapper, and I found myself needing to apply more pressure than what I'm used to when the trackpad film was on. I ended up removing the film and returning it to its box--though your mileage may vary. Trackpads aren't prone to discolouration in the first place, so this doesn't much take away from the overall quality of the product.
2) Application
Applying the product is very straightforward. There are three pieces, each of which is sticky on one side. All you need to do is align it properly, grab a ruler, and press out potential air bubbles --while-- you're applying the guard. Do not wait until later! If you do find that you have air bubbles, it it easier to gently pull up at one of the corners of the palmguard and unstick it to release the air. Remember to pull gently and not to bend the material too much: the plastic can flex a great deal without creasing or stretching, but you should be careful. I had to apply mine a couple of times before I got it the way I wanted it. The entire application took no more than 5 minutes, including the first failed attempt.
I would very much like to give this product 5 stars, but because of the trackpad film, it's not perfect. It gets 4.5 stars from me. As the previous reviewer already stated, this product does not disrupt the beautiful look and feel of the macbook pro. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to protect their macbook without altering its image.

The Design, feel, and fit |
I truly love the design. The Palmguard just looks awesome on my white Macbook. Since the material which is used is very similar to the original top case it blends in very well. I especially like the little logo in the right bottom corner - now that is elegant understatement of the finest. The feel is very nice also. Because of the material which is used, there is no "sticky feeling" like with other palmrest protectors. The fit of the Palmguard is very exact, too.
To summarize:
I think if you are on the search for palmrest protection only this is the one that fits the best (color-wise and material wise) and feels the best when resting your palms on it.
Final thoughts:
I recommend this product to all Macbook owners that want protection for the palmrest area and want to do it without attracting too much attention. From a distance you won't be able to notice the Palmguard because it doesn't reflect, because it matches the color of the top case very well and finally because there is no large company logo on it. |
