A place for Apple news, rumors, and discussions.
Guys I’m so sad I’ve only had my macbook for 2 months and I’ve been taking a lot of care of it but it already has a dent somehow, no idea how it even got there. I’ve legit used the headphone jack 2 times and it looks so bad now since it’s a little caved in.
Good grief
Maybe Tim's cock was in there.

Look..i know we all miss the headphone jacks but this isnt the way
Feel for ya though, a tiny bit of scratch on my devices and my ocd kicks in.
My mum always said they are going to get scratched and dinged a bit as they are carried around in bags etc. Same with phones, once the first one happens the next one hurts less.
The day I bought my MacBook Pro in 2015, because it’s so slim and it bevels so sharp, not to the touch, but to the Apple Bag it was in, it in sliced through the bag, fell perhaps 4-5 feet, & left a tiny, but noticeable ding on the Mac.. zero damage to the MacBook other than that since then, and it’s taking its share of falls. Excellent build quality, and hopefully that is still the case as I love to upgrade either this year or early next.

Welcome to the life. Now you can start using it 🤣. My 13” was FULL of dents and scratches before I upgraded. I actually miss having an inch of dents on it. Makes it easier to not worry.
Stuff are meant to by use.
Now it’s got some character, take it easy
Just get Airpod mate and cover up that hole with something
How does this have any upvotes? It’s a laptop. Use it and don’t worry about some dent you almost need a magnifying glass to see

Hammer that shit out, bro!
it'll be okay :)
It’s too far gone. Pay me $50 to dispose of it for you.
Guess it’s been just a month wait till a year and it won’t matter at all.
LOL! Seriously,? I think you'll be ok. You bumped it on something obv and didn't realize. This isn't even noticeable and no one looks at the side anyway especially can't see it much on a darker color either
Are you sure it wasn’t always there? Honestly seems like it could be a factory defect you are just now noticing.
Oh boy, maybe if Tim Cook saw this, he's gonna remove the headphone jack for macbooks and use this as one of the reason.
And then 5 years later re-add it as breakthrough innovation
lmfaoooo
I give you $5 for it
Sus
its ruined!
You should trade it in or get a full refund a small dent on a MacBook is completely unacceptable
It’s trash now, best to give it to me /s
But that sucks. Now that the bandaid is ripped off, the next scratches or dings won’t be as bad.
Touch grass please
This is why you need a case for your macbook
It’s always a bummer when it happens. I try to think of them as battle scars—signs your computer is being used rather than as a display piece.
I think the best way to tackle this is psychologically be in peace with it. A full side cover for example or even a sticker, might help. If you don’t see it, you’ll never bother! I did the same to mine.
Same situation. 2 months and I’ve got an annoying little scratch on the thin strip of the screen where you pull the screen up from. I just bought a leather hardcase and voila, it looks good and doesn’t bother me at all!
Battle scars or return it?
At least it’s near the port so you can barely tell! But I understand the frustration 👌
I accidentally forgot my old MBP it at a friend’s house. When I picked it up, there was a pretty big dent on the top casing. I cannot prove she did something, but it went there without a dent and came back with one. It was the first week I had it 🥲
My girlfriends rabbit took a bite into my pro the other day and put a little dent in it 😑😑
Bpuggt an M1 Pro then I accidentally put a small scratch on the short vertical side facing towards me after about 2 weeks of use.
Apple make really nice stuff that definitely encourages people to keep it 'pristine' but I'm honestly glad I'm not the kind of person that cares, this will be one of many scratches and nicks the product sees over it's five year life.
Funny thing is I haven't scratched it since and it's been about 18 months since then.
get a case
A perfect moment for you to learn about wabi-sabi.
Welcome to the well-used MacBook club.
Haha do you want to see my MacBook??
It’s a thumb groove for easy removal of headphones. 😬
Great post.
