Introduction

I would like to thank Fractal Design for supplying the review sample.


As the name implies, the Fractal Design Meshify S2 is built on the same frame as the Define S2. The need for this case was born after the original Meshify C happened to be a big success and many customers were eager to see a bigger variant. Fractal has chosen to give consumers the choice to go understated, absolutely silent by opting for the Define S2 or select the cooler, more airflow-focused Meshify S2 chassis.

The Meshify S2 comes in four variants: two completely black options with only the tint of the tempered glass being different, a totally black variant with a solid side panel, or a white and black version with a clear tempered glass panel.

Specifications

Packaging

The Fractal Design Meshify S2 comes packaged in a brown cardboard box with an outline of the chassis on front. The rear lists the features alongside a blow-up diagram of the enclosure. You will find a specifications table on one side; the other just holds another view of the S2 itself.


The case comes sandwiched between two thick Styrofoam spacers. While Fractal Design also placed a large foam layer on the side with the glass panel to protect the R6 during shipping, there is no such additional layer of protection for this chassis. A plastic bag has been a put over the Meshify S2 to keep fingerprints and scratches away.
