I have the same exact tomtoc case but in black and I don't have that issue on my space grey MBP 16. Could it be based on the pressure that is being applied with the case and mbp? I haven't applied pressure so that the bubbles can press on the MBPshall I be worried about tomtoc case?
my wife used a dust cover for her mbp. I hated it. until that night I was drinking wine and spilled it on her keyboard! I felt so terrible

I love Waterfield Design Sleeves. Unfortunately the Dash Sleeve Forza Blue I ordered for my 14" was not a good fit at all. Super tight and didn't cover the Macbook in its entirely. Ended up sending it back.
Seriously, I ordered it.
Should make a nice addition to my SleeveCase and Tech Folio Brief and Hip Sling Bag...
Haha I guess Apple was nervous about letting people know in advance about how much meatier the new MBP is
Here you go. It's ever so slightly looser compared to the 13 inch size or the one I had for an old 2018/2019 15 inch but I like this style. NO ZIPPERS!Any photos? I accidentally bought the small size and found out that it doesn't fit

I am returning my Waterfield Sutter Slim Backpack for the Waterfield Mezzo Laptop Backpack for a little extra room for other accessories that I carry — headphones, tech pouch, A5 daily planner, A5 notebook.
The Sutter was perfect for for a more minimalistic EDC, but I usually carry a little more than I thought I would.

Picked up a Woolnut Leather folio for my 16". Fits well, isn't very thick at all, but looks quite nice. Amazon has them right now for $169. Woolnut's site: https://www.woolnut.com/shop/laptops/mbpro16/mb-16-folio-black/

everyone is so busy buying sleeves - im just using mine.
first scratch is always the worst..
Anyone ever tried, a case-skin?
Any experience? Does it offer the basic protection from scratches? Anything else?
Something like this
My wonder is about the adhesive material. If I ever want to pull it out, will mbp be untouched, or will it have stains of glue on it?
I have not seen any know brands with such case-skins.
But on ebay some options like these make their appearances, now that I am looking for the new mbp.

I spent a good chunk of time researching the various sleeve-type case options on Amazon, mostly running searches for sleeves with documented inner dimensions matching the dimensions of the 14" MBP. Based on that, I purchased this sleeve case:
Interior Dimensions: 12.6" x 9.1" x 0.6"
MacBook Pro 14" Dimensions: 12.31" x 8.71" x 0.61"
I'm not sure why it's marketed for the older style 13" MBP, as it seems it would be pretty large/not very snug. It fits the 14" pretty much perfectly. Very soft interior. Well made. Highly recommend, very happy with this purchase.

I got the Bellroy sleeve for my 16, and sadly it’s too tight of a fit. The sleeve also buckles out quite a bit. So back on the hunt.
My 16” MacBook pro is coming today, I had to pull out the wallet and get some sort of protection.
I was on the fence with a sleeve or bag. I used to own a in case sleeve for my older 15” MacBook Pro.
But I am kinda scared sleeves with zips will scratch my brand new toy. I went with the WaterField Outback Solo Case.
Hopefully it will last, as it’s just as pricey as the MacBook Pro.
