Quite Impressed
Pros: Item exactly as described, everything seems to be very high quality. cable is sturdy and durable. Looks nice.
Cons: Can't really think of any, solid product delivers exactly what you want.
Overall Review: I hardly ever write reviews, but had such a good experience with this product I felt I should commend the company for providing a well thought out product. For starters, the manual is detailed and easy to follow. A magnetic screwdriver is included with this device, which is a nice bonus. As I was removing the screws to install the 2.5" drive, I happened to drop one of the screws and for the life of me could not find it... After 10 mins of searching I decided I would have to live with only 3 of the 4 screws, so I pop open the iNeo, and guess what I find.... the manufacturer has included an extra screw inside the case! Got everything put together and it works great in my testing so far. Would buy from this company again.
Excellent Sturdy HTPC Case
Pros: -Great design giving easy access to everywhere in the case. -Very Sturdy -Fans seem to be above average quality and quieter than other stock case fans. -PSU is easily removable. -Reset button is also HDD LED (kindof a cool idea) -Looks great.
Cons: -Power button did not work on first install, turns out that one of the wires going to the power button module was not connected. Nothing a soldering gun couldn't fix. The rest of the case seemed good quality and solid, but quality control may be an issue. -Case cover is a little hard to get back on once taken off, but this is fairly common.
Overall Review: All around great and inexpensive case, it is definitely minimalistic (no fancy VFD display or anything) but for building a basic HTPC, it can't be beat. I was worried when I bought this case about quality and noise, since I hadn't heard of this brand before (I usually make a point to buy my cases from a well known case manufactuer) but I was pleasantly surprised, and would definitely buy this case again.
Note about onboard video
Pros: Don't be fooled by the specs that say no Onboard Video (see the video connectors out the back). The reason for this is because it uses Integrated graphics that are onboard the the CPU. Core i5 and Core i3 CPUs have Integrated Graphics built right into them.
Cons: none so far.
