Introduction
I would like to thank
SilverStone for supplying the review sample.
The SilverStone Lucid series always focused on providing lots of glass panels in unique interior shapes and layouts. The Lucid 01 had a rotated motherboard along with two heavily tempered glass panels. Then there was the Lucid 03, a ITX tower chassis with plenty of unique design details and lots of glass as well. Now, SilverStone is expanding the line with the Lucid 04, which feels long overdue as we reviewed the Lucid 03 in 2019. That said, the Lucid 04 is a distinctively simple and straightforward chassis, which sets it apart from all that came before it.

Packaging
The SilverStone Lucid 04 ships in a brown cardboard box with an image of the chassis on both larger panels. On the one side, you will find a short list of features in multiple languages, while the other provides you with a specification table and sticker with the letter B for black - so that you know what color is within.
Two compact Styrofoam spacers hold the chassis in place with a thick plastic bag further protecting it from fingerprints and scratches.
