THULE Gauntlet 4.0 Casual Daypack 33 cm (13") centimeters Black

Good quality - keeps its shape, gives a level of 'hard' protection, decent zip, good fit for 2019 15" MacBook Pro. Interesting colour, cool and restrained branding. Doesn't really have a competitor, hence 5 stars

Don't trust any of the negative reviews. It's a great case, fits perfectly and looks smart. You can also use the laptop whilst it sits open in the case, as I am now.Granted, it's nothing special, in that it doesn't have extra pockets or anything, but it does what it should and it made will with nice sliding zips and soft inner lining for the laptop to sit against.

Only just received my Thule gauntlet 4 caseCould not find in description or reviews if it fitted latest MacBook Air but it doesSeem well made and idea for what I wantedI.e. protective case for use in car / on holidaySo then so good

I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab S7Plus with Keyboard Cover. As I'm over protective of my mobile devices I wanted a sleeve or case for impact protection, for when the device will be transported outside of my house.The dimensions of my Tablet with the Keyboard cover attached is;28.5 (W) x 19.5 (H) x 2.0 (D) cm.The depth (D) here is the thickest point, where the S-Pen attaches. (These dimensions were taken by me with a metal rule, treat them as approximates)The Thule arrived this morning and fits my Tablet very well. At first try it looked like my tablet was too wide, but with a little wiggling it went in fine. Take note of the interior straps of the Thule, as they bundle/bunch up and can give the illusion of resistance when putting your device in. They're easily moved out of the way though.The dual zips move OK, though they don't glide smoothly, but it's not difficult to operate them. At this price point a smoother glide would be appreciated. The exterior of the case has a slight rubber and textured feel, which I find pleasant. Both interior faces are padded and covered in a black fabric that is nice to touch, with black stitching in a pleasant pattern. The interior fabric is very quick to pick up lint, as I found in my first few minutes.The shell has a little flex to it. It's not a solid rigid structure. About the same flex as a plastic storage box. I would imaging over flexing is possible and would cause irreparable damage.I went for the blue shell colour. The colour in real life, under natural light, appears to be accurate to what appears on my TFT monitor of my PC. It is a pleasant blue.Value:After browsing a while I noted the external dimensions of the 12" Thule and added it to a Wish List. At the time of addition the item was priced around £45, which was off putting. However, on the 23rd Nov I was going through my wish list and discovered that it had dropped in price to £26.22. So I bought it. For your reference, it was sold by marketplace seller and not Amazon. At the price I paid, I regard it as good value for money. If I had to I'd possibly pay a maximum of £35 for this product, any higher IMHO is too expensive for what you're getting.Dimensions:At the moment this product web page gives two sets of dimensions;(1) 30 (L) x 3(W) x 22.1(H) cm, at the top of the page. This I believe is the External dimensions(2) 29.97 x 3.05 x 22.1 cm, in the product description section. Again this I believe is the external dimensionsBut what is of real interest is the internal dimensions. My trusty metal rule shows that the internal dimensions of the Thule is;28.6 x 20.3 cm (treat them as approximates) NOTE: Only two measurements there. I do not have the necessary instrument to measure the internal height i.e the thickness/depth, when closed. But I can assure you that the thickness of my Tablet inside the keyboard cover (as stated above) is comfortably accommodated by the Thule.Durability:It looks and feels durable. I'll try and update this review in about 6months time with my durability experience.

The must important about the Thule Gauntlet laptop cases are their durability is that this cover really is. Last year, I have an incident where my laptop fell off my car and was in the street for four days, and when I found it again it was evident that cars had driven over my laptop since the Thule case had tyre marks on top. when I opened the case my laptop was still working and the screen unbroken. From now on I only trust Thule cases. This year I got a new laptop and of course a new Thule Gauntlet laptop case.

Trading on brand and gives the absolute minimum. Can and have got better and much cheaper.

I’m unsure if it’s water resistant as this is not something I’d test ‘on purpose’ fits my MacBook Pro 13inch 2020 beautifully. Feels very protected, snug fit. On the interior there is a ledge almost surrounding the laptop meaning the zip won’t scratch it. I like how it’s hard opposed to the soft neoprene cases which offer little protection. Love the feature which means you can use the laptop in the case, perfect for taking it to university. I feel like £40 is a reasonable price for a decent case, especially when the laptop was £1,000+.

Good fit and protects very well, you can tell that if a backpack carrying this thule case with the mbp inside it was to drop, then your mbp would be safe. Worth every penny.
