That is a difficult shape. You will need curves and surfaces to do it. There are 2 or 3 training courses in the learning center for both curves and surfaces that would be a good idea to take.

If the sides can be simpler, you could do it like this, which does not need any curves or surfacing tools:

The shape is simple... you just need to learn how to properly use the Loft Feature.  As mentioned, there are lot's of OnShape Training courses.  Highly suggest you at least go through all of the Basics and Fundamentals courses.

You'll need to make some three-dimensional defining geometry. Maybe first consider what basic shape the case is built upon, model that, then add details. A quick sample:
