Foam spacers surrounding the PSU inside the box offer adequate protection. The user manual is common to all three members of the line, and the bundle is poor, only consisting of the four screws to mount the PSU. No Velcro straps or even zip ties are included.
This is a compact PSU. As per usual, the power specifications label is on the bottom, and the modular panel on the back has eight sockets.
The badge in the middle of the fan grill is large. They should make it a little smaller to have it block less of the airflow for the fan.

The cables are long, and there are enough connectors. At 150 mm, all connectors are also adequately far apart.
The major downside is the installation of both EPS connectors on the same cable. Even the 16AWG gauges up to the first EPS connector are not enough to handle the full load a pair of these connectors can deliver.
