I think, the design of the case could be better, especially since it is designed and produced by a company that normally pays a lot of attention to details. The case doesn't have enough clearance for the HDMI/USB-C ports, which is causing the case's top layer to bend and also add additional strain on the ports, PCB and case itself. In addition, I would never expect to have to take the active cooler off the board to uncase the Raspberry Pi. I think also there should be an easy way to attach the NVM board to the Raspberry Pi as it is sold and designed by the same company. Imho it would be a great thing. In other ways, the quality of the case is very good. Maybe some instructions would be have to get for assembly.

Great low profile case. Precisely cut with protective film. If you are wanting something that takes up little space, provides some basic protection, and looks kind of cool, this is it. Have to be careful not to overtighten the plastic screws.

Nice and well fitting case! One suggestion, as the bolts that came with it were longer leaving legs, a neat addition would be rubber feet to go over the ends, stops it from sliding around.

The latest iteration on the classic case, accomodates the active cooler nicely.

Love the Pimoroni style of cases, been using them since the first rainbow coloured one on my Pi 1. I added a couple of adhesive silicone feet to stop it sliding around to make it perfect, then strapped it to a USB SSD. The modularity of them is great, so with a bit of adjustment and a couple of spacer levels, am shortly hoping to accommodate an NVMe expansion slung below the Pi5 to neaten things up.
