It appears the new speakers push their improved sound through the vents on the side of the machine. Interestingly, the new speaker grilles on the 13-inch model appear to serve no function and are purely cosmetic … 1-16 of 943 results for 'macbook case' MOSISO Compatible with MacBook Pro 13 inch Case 2016-2020 Release A2338 M1 A2289 A2251 A2159 A1989 A1706 A1708, Plastic Hard Shell Case&Keyboard Cover Skin&Screen Protector&Storage Bag, Black 27,983 17 99 17.09 with Subscribe & Save discount Save 2.
