@chrissteggles The leather is pretty good ! The color (red) fades a bit after a year though. I'd say the only downside I had is not to be able to put the charger in it some way.
Been a big fan and user of the book book for years! Hopefully they've put a little more effort into durability. The phone case tends to fall apart after months of being shoved in and out of pockets.
@fotofactorydk I've had mine for a couple years and it doesn't significantly effect the heat. The air can still escape in front of the hinge (as opposed to normal: both in front and behind). Once or twice I've taken it out of the case when I do something really intensive, like compress a long video
I would use something like this when I leave my mac at home, as an extra precaution just in case. Of course I wouldn't let it sit on a table in cafe. Especially since the zipper is clearly visible.
