Radtech ScreenSavrz for 12" MacBook

Bleh5 said:
Just a heads up that the radtech website has been updated to include the 12" MacBook.

I've had one of their microfiber cloths in each of my last four laptops, and really like them.

Update: Ships 5/15.

These look nice. Please update us with how well it works once the screen is closed. The only thing I worry about is that this cloth is not thin enough to allow the screen to close all the way without some pressure on the keys or screen since the rMB is such a think form factor now.
 
Just wanted to note that the Radtech Screensavr for the 11" MBA 'works' for the most part on the RMB, except it's one centimeter too narrow if you try to align it with one of the edges of the keyboard. If you center it on the keyboard it covers everything up except for the smallest bit, left and right. Doesn't seem to pose any problems with closing the lid.
 
I cannot find any EU reseller (FR) so shipping only cost 28$. Is this thing really good?

Just came in, and here are some pics. The next to last pic is with the cloth inside; the last pic is without the cloth. No difference.

No where in particular; just wherever there's space, usually on the desk.
 
I'm using the one from my two-laptops-ago 11" MBA and it fits pretty well. I also have the light gray. And, I usually put it in my bag when I'm actually using the laptop.
 
Is there any truth to rumors that leaving this on and closing the top is not good for the macbook?

Something about potential damage from the macbook not being fully closed?
 
Does it work with MacBook Pro 13,3" 2016-2017? Any stress on the hinge assembly? Does it close completely?

RadTech decided to protect only the keyboard part of the MacBook Pro 13,3" 2016-2017, this is why I am asking.

Curious about this as well.

I can answer now my question myself because I bought a 12" version. The MacBook 13,3" 2016 w/o Touchbar doesn't close properly with it - and not just by a small amount, but significantly.
