Introduction
I would like to thank
In Win for supplying the review sample.
We reviewed the large D-Frame in the past, and In Win presented a smaller version of it at Computex 2014. Today, we have the pleasure of reviewing the D-Frame Mini. It comes in three available colors: orange, red, and black. We got the latter version to present in this review.
Here is what In Win has to say about their chassis:
Continuing the iconic D-Frame aluminum tube structure, In Win once again designed the most powerful, most forward-looking and ultra-portable mini-ITX gaming chassis. We've expanded the definition of mini, by creating an enclosure which can house powerful components and provide you nothing less than the ultimate gaming experience.

Packaging
The In Win D-Frame Mini ships in a fully colored package, its front and back holding some pictures of the enclosure. Both sides list the chassis' specifications and features.
Unlike the original D-Frame, the Mini does not require you to assemble it as it instead shipping ready to be filled right out of the box. It is held in place inside the box by two foam pads and comes inside a heavy duty cloth bag to protect it from scratches and fingerprints.
