XPG Defender Pro Review

Introduction

XPG Logo

I would like to thank XPG for supplying the review sample.


Born out of a sub-branding effort that took place in the past and was "upgraded" to its own independent branding, XPG is the gaming-focused product range from ADATA. The XPG Defender Pro we are reviewing today advertises E-ATX compatibility and a well-designed, metal exterior with embedded LED strips as well as a set of fans. As seen in the promotional image above, this case ships in either black or white color variants, and we received the white one for review.

Packaging


XPG ships the Defender Pro in a plain brown box with an image of the enclosure on front and a blow-up diagram of it on the rear. One side lists the unit's specifications, while the other leaves room for shipping labels, but also comes with a sticker for the color you've received.


Two solid Styrofoam spacers hold the chassis in place, and a clear plastic bag keeps fingerprints and scratches away during packing.
