Fractal Design have concentrated the essence of their Meshify 2 and Define 7 series to bring you four new cases - introducing a Mini and Nano form factor to each family. All four cases feature the same recognizable exterior design expressions as their larger siblings, while offering many of the quality-of-life features associated which each series. They also offer generous compatibility, accessibility, and flexibility, in space-conscious sizes - so you can develop your ideal Mini or Nano system.

The Meshify 2 Mini offers an excellent combination of airflow and flexibility, in a form-factor optimized for mATX. The bold yet refined exterior design, with its asymmetric angular mesh front, is complemented by a flush TG panel and a fully removable top. Its accessible and intuitive interior layout makes it easy and enjoyable to build a stylish, airflow-centric system.



The Define 7 Mini offers the same stylish appeal and many of the life-improving features of its larger siblings, in a condensed form factor. Its compact yet spacious interior can accommodate mATX and Mini ITX motherboards for a sleek and streamlined system. Additionally, like all four new Mini and Nano cases, it offers the option to house a GPU up to 331 mm with a 240 mm radiator in the top.


The Meshify 2 Nano offers ITX form-factor enthusiasts plenty of scope for creative builds through excellent radiator support for its size and the ability to accommodate a GPU of up to 331 mm. It also features a fully removable top, bolt-free side panels and a removable front mesh to make building and cable routing easy and enjoyable. The flexible design and angular asymmetry are complemented by a flush TG panel to showcase internal components.


The Define 7 Nano re-defines precision, bringing clean design and a host of features from its larger siblings to a minimized form factor. The compact yet spacious interior can accommodate all Mini ITX and Mini-DTX motherboards. Like all four new Mini and Nano cases, there's even room for a GPU up to 306 mm when mounting a 25 mm thick front fan, making Define 7 Nano a highly compatible case for its streamlined format.

The Pop mini air is a hit.

I like the Pop. But the Meshify 2 micro ATX is absurdly overpriced. $150 CAD? No.
 
Kinda sad they didn't do anything to help airflow for gpus in the nanos. That shroud wont let it breathe at all

Gotta say, I really like the new Pop! cases from Fractal...even if they are a bit boxy and boring-looking - but the internal color variants help make them less boring! My favorite has to be the lime green version. That said, I find their biggest drawback being that the XL version only comes in all black or all white. I really hope the different color cores come to the XL versions!
