Battle of the Mac Locks: Maclocks Macbook Pro retina lock Vs. PNY combination security lock

You know that split second when you have to walk away from your laptop, but fear that it won’t be there when you get back? Great news! The MacLocks MacBook Pro retina lock makes life that much easier. Check it out for yourself on Scott Kelby’s comparison of the MacLock’s “MacBook Pro Security Bracket Vs. PNY’s new “ThinkSafe” lock for the MacBook Pro Retina display. Ready, set, secure!

As most of us are often attached to our Macbook by the hip, not to mention any of the other devices we own.  Maclocks’ Macbook retina lock allows you to fasten an ongoing seat belt to your computer. Consider it a technological body suit. The whole point of the Macbook Pro Retina Lock is to make sure your device stays safe no matter where you are or what you’re doing.

How does this thing work? The Maclocks MacBook Pro Retina lock bracket integrates a hardly noticeable security slot to your device. A high-profile aluminum bracket is attached to the bottom of your MBPR using only 4 screws. (No harm done to your MacBook Pro’s warranty, that’s a promise!)

Just simply connect it, lock with your key and it’s locked in.

According to Scott Kelby’s comparison, Maclocks comes out ahead because it’s simple to assemble, can be left on at all time, and really gives you a sense of total security. On Kelby’s 90-second review for Maclocks MacBook Pro Retina Lock bracket  he declared “This is the laptop lock I’ve been waiting for! They totally nailed it”

Bottomline: No one said it better than Scott Kelby in his comparison review:

“If I had to choose between the PNY and the MacLocks security solution, I’d spend the extra $40 and go with the MacLocks, because I think it’s an easier-to-live-with solution for everyday use”.

A small correction to Scott’s review the PNY product is actually $30 so the gap is much less for a lot more!
