Introduction

I would like to thank Lian Li for supplying the review sample.


The Lancool line of enclosures was initially a separate case brand by the Lian Li team, to offer consumers a more affordable product range. However, the brand has seen a shift in its product range and mix in recent years which lead to the launch of a Lancool series within the Lian Li brand. These still aim to provide a lot of bang for your buck, and given the success of the previous versions, it is no surprise that Lian Li continues to flesh out that product stack. The Lancool 216, which we are reviewing in it's RGB variant, offers large intake fans with a design philosophy true to the Lancool range.

Packaging

The case ships in a very sturdy brown cardboard box with both main sides holding two different views of the Lancool 216, and an RGB label letting you know that you will be receiving the version with illuminated fans. The smaller panels don't hold much information besides the Lian Li logo and product name.


The case itself is protected by a clear plastic bag and further secured for transport by two Styrofoam spacers. The accessories box is also sandwiched between these two elements nicely, as you can see.
