Fractal Define 7 Review
Packaging & Contents »Introduction
I would like to thank Fractal for supplying the review sample.
It has been a good decade in which we have seen six R-Series generations of cases from Fractal Design. Last year marked their major rebrand during which they not only changed their logo, but dropped the "Design" in the name. With the Define 7 we are reviewing here, the "R" is gone as well, giving us the 7th generation of the successful lineage of enclosures. Available in four different base variants and both black and white, the Fractal Define 7 is the first core hero product to be released after that clean rebrand.
