I easily give 5 stars for build, design, and just the absolute sheer care that the SVALT team put into everything. They literally thought of EVERYTHING, this is a gorgeous and well made product. Absolutely phenomenal packaging experience.
The two stars: performance. SVALT completely lacks any concrete evidence or data that this product actually and meaningfully improves cooling performance on my 16” Macbook Pro M4 Max. Apple did NOT bake into their thermal management calculus the use of their bottom aluminum cover for any type of meaningful heat exchange or extraction. I tested my MBP multiple times with and without the SVALT cooler in clamshell mode. The temps were literally about the same under immense load. Fan speeds internally the same… heat stable temps the same…
SVALT - your marketing isn’t clear. And you dont allow returns - shady? Shame on me, the stupid customer… overpriced paper weight now on my desk. SVALT team, I really wanted to love your product. But I just can’t…
