p.s. I have never seen a hard case being used which is why I need help with functionality. I drop things occasionally while using them. IS IT CAPABLE TO PROTECT COMPUTER FUNCTIONING FROM FALLS?

The case or somewhat ridged so it wouldn't offer a lot of protection from a fall

In my opinion, I feel like this bag would protect my laptop in a fall much more likely than my regular work bag that I carry everyday. I can't tell you that it will protect your laptop 100% since I am very careful with my Mac and pray that I don't have to find out. I know accidents happen so I am hoping that my investment with this bag will protect my MacBook Pro.

Yes. There is about a half inch of padding around the case, but it isn't very resilient. It's fine for brushing up against stuff while transporting your keyboard, but it's not going to protect it against hard impact. I suppose, however, that the strength of the plastic shell on the keyboard should protect it just fine in the event of an impact, while the case (with its slight padding) will prevent the plastic keyboard shell from getting scratched or dented. Hope this helps!

Not sure how to answer this, I havent owned many computer cases. This one seems lighter than my others but it also is pretty well built and not flimsy when empty. It isnt near as heavy as my old leather one was...

Hi there! This is a snap-on case. The case does protect from the dings and dents of everyday use, as it encloses the back and sides fully; yet is not designed to cushion from excessive drops, especially drops to hard surfaces.

I do not experience such thing, but then I rarely open the hard case off my laptop, so it would not allow any debris to come in between. I have used it for a year, and it is still going strong.

It will protect it from cracking/ breaking if it is dropped. However, it won't from direct impact to to the screen. If something heavy is dropped on it, (nothing will protect it then).

I didn't. I am sure though it's not to protect from a fall on a hard surface (though I've seen iPhones survive on their own). I bought this case to protect from scratches, dirt and wear of being carried in a bag, in a pocket with keys, left in a car compartment or car floor and things like that. Rugged cases are bulky, look somewhat silly and give a protection for something that is quite unlikely to happen, in my opinion.

i don't think that is an issue. the case goes on and off with just a snap. i have had mind for a while and it has served me very well. note i have not had occasion to remove my case from the computer but again it appears it should not be that hard or damaging.

It's not quite as sturdy as a hard case. I'm packing it into a moving van soon, though, and have no concerns. The case is high quality and very nice.

It is very light and doesn't add much in the way of bulk either. Honestly, I think the case will definitely help with every day scratching, but I wouldn't expect it to help if the computer was dropped. Hope this helps!

Yes, it is a great case! I use a bunch of them in my office and they are great cases for just about every one of your needs. I use the power supply that came with them and have never had a problem. I am not gamer but these things are on 24/7 and we have never had a failure.

Have to be very careful, but just pull back corners... One by one... Again be careful or you might brake the little tabs that hold the case against the computer. Hope that helps.

It closes fairly securely. I don't know if the laptop would come out if dropped, I try never to drop mine!

I have not looked for a hard case. However, I use the bag they came in and it is working perfectly for me.

This is really hard to drop lol and it does have room for adapter and if you somehow did drop it I think the protection is pretty decent. I have a MacBook Air so keep that in mind
