    Not the original, but it IS good

    posted by paulomatsui on 04/05/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    Good finish, won't warm up too much, got the new magnetic connector (v.2), more slim and elegant.
    Cons:
    The power connector and the adapter body color won't match. They're 2 kinds of white and off-white. And they don't fit each oth...

    Fits great!

    posted by paulomatsui on 04/03/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Pretty, cheap, great finish and affordable. This shower cap came in a package with 3 different design each. Luckly this one came with Hello Kitty in, which my daughter loves.
    Cons:
    None. This is a shower cap, actually. Not much to appraise, you know...

    Think it as a insurance

    posted by paulomatsui on 04/02/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Fits perfectly. Excelent finish. Has the same size and weight of the original back. Comes wonderfully well-protected from the original manufacturer - a good thing because it IS fragile.
    Cons:
    It is transparent! So tacky and cheesy. Looks like something out of a teenage summer movie or something. Price not so cheap - b...

    It WORKS

    posted by paulomatsui on 01/08/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Accurate. Sleek. No-nonsense design. Professional looking. Great grip. Great plastic-rubbery texture on touch.
    Cons:
    Power hog: if you forget the supplied 9V battery inside the machine, it can drain out it in a matter of days - even when not in...

    Great bargain for your buck

    posted by paulomatsui on 11/19/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Impossible price tag. More than adequate finish. Holds charge almost as much as an Apple original part. Pretty fast shipping time.
    Cons:
    Not any big one. See, since most MacBooks are pretty worn out when they need this replacement, this new battery contrasts sharp...

    A bargain for its price

    posted by paulomatsui on 09/21/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Great price for the item, good finishing, manmade materials only, no animal leather, no polyurethane "funny" smell, good grip, precise and fast velcro.
    Cons:
    The Chinese sizing is ALWAYS misleading. When they say some clothing or apparel size is "L", it should be read "...

    Works with OS X - with one catch

    posted by paulomatsui on 06/13/2011 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Great build quality, slim, USB slots nicely spaced. Despite the other reviews, my power adapter won't go excessively hot or anything. It simply works: just plug the power cord, connect it to one USB port on your computer and off you go.
    Cons:
    Won't charge an iPad when connected through it - even when using the provided power adapter. Won't let my Intel iMac (running O...

    Works great - except for the accents

    posted by paulomatsui on 05/27/2011 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Great price for such benefit: you can watch your .AVI and .DiVX on your couch, using your TV! I don't know if I did get a new version, but reading the past reviews, I can't agree with them. Its build quality seems fine and OK for me. Pretty solid buttons an...
    Cons:
    A major con one for us - accents alphabet language: NO ACCENT on the subtitles. It doesn't matter whether the text inside the ....

    Fair for the price

    posted by paulomatsui on 02/15/2011 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    It fulfills its primary job: it is vegan and protects your iPad from bumps and scratches. It is subtle, has no fake branding, no silkscreened ugly printings, no pointless phrases or anything. Looks - looks - classy at a first sight.
    Cons:
    Smells funny. Like solvent with leather. It IS a very distinctive and strong smell. Specially if you're in a tight space. Its ...
