Will my MACBook Air feel (or be) heavier? Does it cover the portals? (USB, headphone, etc) or , are the portals always exposed inside one's bag?

No it won't feel heavier and no it does not cover portals so they would be exposed in your bag.
1814515
It will feel slightly heavier, but not significantly. It does not cover any ports or holes for USB, charging or headphones whatsoever.

The portals are open. It adds a little weight but not much. It fits like a glove as long as you pay attention to the model it's for ( the newer version ).

The plastic is super thin and does not cover the portals. It's not heavy, but it adds a little weight. You can compare it to adding a case to your iPhone. There is a kit that can cover the portals, it comes in the same colors as the cover. Also sold on amazon.

No, the mac book air doesn't feel any heavier at all. All of the portals are exposed so you can plug anything into the lap top while the cover is on it.

No, the cover doesn't make it feel any heavier. No it does not cover the portals. They are deposed.

No, it will not firmly hold the MacBook Air hinge up. Personally, I have not noticed any overheating as the MacBook Air inherently runs cool. Also the fan shuts off as soon as the computer is shut. My computer runs as well as it has since day one.

This thing is pretty giant to be hauling it around everywhere. I got it for air travel and use it infrequently. It will definitely protect your mac, but it would be a bit ridiculous to be lugging it around campus.

I think it's 8mm thick. I have an original MacBook Air that I replaced the original hard drive in. While this one did 'fit' without the built in cradle, the MBA is so thin that one of the corners of the bottom case is about 1/2 a mm out of place... this is not seen and is not noticeable unless you are looking for it... I hope that helps.

I dont know. I have a macbook pro 13. If the measurements are the same in should length wise. If the macbook air is thinner than the macbook pro, it will likely move around a lot in the case.

No, because the bottom part of the case is specifically made for the Macbook Pro 13" portals. For example, I know that the Air doesn't have a disc portal on the right side and the case has a slit for discs on the right side, so I'm sorry, this case isn't for MacBook Air 13".

Hi Arsalan,The dimensions are approx 13 in x 9.5 in. The depth is hard to measure because it's pretty stretchy. My MacBook Air is .4/.5 in at its widest and there is still room to stick my hand or a power cable or something inside the sleeve. You may not be able to close the flap all the way on your machine but I rarely close mine anyway, preferring to leave one side open so I can easily plug/unplug my charging cable.

I have the bag in size small and my 13 inch macair fits in it just fine. However it doesn't fit with a cover on it. The only bad thing is that since the laptop sleeve is in the very back of the back it will be what is making contact between your hip/back and the bag. I don't like that all that pressure is on my Mac. I would reccomend the classic messenger bag in size small for this reason. Then you can keep your laptop sleeve on and place it near the front and have a book or something in the back. Timbuk2 bag sizes are really big. A medium is actually a really big bag, the small is more of the normal sized shoulder messenger bag to me. Check their website for exterior and interior dimensions.

I purchased a bag off of SFBags.com - it is minimalistic - but really high quality. It is made specifically for the MacBook Air - size 13-2 - it is a sleeve, with a velcro flap, and a shoulder strap with a 'pad' on it to prevent slipping. Under a hundred bucks...weighs about 2 lbs.In addition, I purchased the Ethernet adaptor - we all have to use Ethernet at somepoint - an extra power cord, and the airline adaptor.I am absolutely loving the MBA - I used to lug around a 17" Dell - always making the 'decision' on whether to take it or not - based on weight, and size...unlike the Dell, I carry the MBA everywhere....Hey, what's the iPod battery settlement? I own several iPods - did I miss out? I purchased a bag off of SFBags.com - it is minimalistic - but really high quality.

I do not have a MacBook Air but the stand comes with pads that are tested for all recent MacBook form factors. It holds my retina MacBook Pro tightly.

umm, i'm unsure because i don't have a MAC Air lol i have a macbook pro which is thicker. so idk it might be to big for your MAC. you might want to get something smaller. or this one in an air size. because its amazing and it feels so good to touch.

I do not have the MACbook Air version... I do have the MACbook Pro Retina 15" (which is Waaaay hotter than an Air) and have absolutely no issue with heat. I also use their BookBook for my iPad and my iPhone...love them all!

It's pretty snugg (no pun intended) on my Macbook Air as there is no gusset on the sides - just a "knife edge" (like a toss pillow). It is fully made of leather so I'm sure it will give a little but I don't think it would fit the older model Macbook (my daughters old white one is about 1" thick) very well. If it did ... it would really take a LOT of stretching.

No, this is a great case, but it's definitely on the bigger side even for the MacBook Pro. The Air definitely would be too thin and too small for this case.

I did quite a bit of research and finally purchased a horizontal sleeve for the MacBook Air 11.6" from www.rickshawbags.com. I have the black with red lining. It is beautiful, functional, and very light. Also, they produced their bags in a very environmentally conscious manner. Highly recommended.

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

I have the mac book air. There are straps to secure the laptop. This product is not bulky. It does protect my mac book. I am going to order another for my husband's laptop also. GREAT PRODUCT!!!
