I like the chassis. What I really want to see though is an enthoo pro matx and mitx case, I know the evolv matx and mitx is out but enthoo pro matx and mitx would be something id buy.

honestly, this version still does not include those hdd and extra ssd brackets but just one more fan than that in the original version, what a pity.

In 12/12/2015, in china, there was an online shop pre-selling this case at $62USD=~$399RMB.

Anyone buying this case probably doesn't need those. I just purchased the Pro M and then they announce this before I even swapped cases. Considering returning and swapping.

IIRC those were supposed to be tempered glass, not acrylic.

indeed, so there are some tradeoffs.
and you can find more similar cases in some chinese webs and forums about this problem.
so i think acrylic although seems to be cheap, it should be "functioning" well, enough.
But according to the preselling price in china on particular seller, the cost of this case should be very low so i think the price set by official is actually quiet overpriced.

i have bought the enthoo pro m case. it is great. but you cant say that, two hdds are likely not enough if you have lots of AVs and games.
enthoo pro m has extremely better cooling performance compared to evolv series cases. i have even installed three 140mm in the front. the cpu temp is pretty good compared to my old case.
but its definitely more louder.

*suddenly broke*

it should be related to the temp. differential between inside and outside. for what i have known, inwin just adding a "tape" on the glass to avoid broken glass like that. it works as if the glass broke then those pieces are still in good shape

The case is priced less than what I paid for my Enthoo Pro and caters to my needs better in several ways. *shrug* It's not 150 bucks like Lian-Li demand so I'm ok with it. It's also aesthetically pleasing IMO. I just want the full acrylic side.

I run with 2 SSDs, one PCI-E and one 2.5" which I always have behind the motherboard tray. What I meant was I believe the layout and especially the acrylic side panel is more geared to showing off water setups which is why the reduction in drive space and 5.25" bays compared to the Enthoo Pro. I don't need any of those so this case is

The way it's shattered it looks like somebody nicked the corner the wrong way. Very possible if it's tempered glass.
