Does exactly what it says on the tin, good temperature performance, slightly cooler with the lid removed. Looks great overall.

Very nicely built. Plugging the flat cable into the pcie connector will challenge your manipulation skills a bit, but not too bad

Excellent case. Easier to get working than the Argon ONE V3 M.2 NVME Raspberry Pi 5 Case. I actually prefer the NEO because it's smaller and I don't need the full-size HDI ports and GPIO availability for my current use-case. Less to go wrong with the NEO!

Generally I like it. My main problem is overheating, which seems odd as several people have commented how cool it remains during "tests". Looking at it with a thermal camera the hot spots are not the Fan/CPU (and they are only 60C or so) ...so I'd guess there's a poor thermal connection to CPU (I've checked it multiple times) . The other issue is the lack of any route out for cables when you plug stuff into the GPIO pins.

I like the metal case, as I will be using this outdoors to control an automated telescope, where there may be some dew settling on it as the night progresses. I am using StellarMate OS for RPi. Also, I like how the NVME hat is built into the case. The main issue I had was getting the connecting strip actually connected between the RPI 5 PCI output and the PCI input for the integrated NVME board. This took way to much fiddling. I am sure others are more experienced with this, but this was a pain. After installation, the RPI 5 and NVME card worked as expected! No issues.

Great little case for the 5. Slightly fiddly getting cable for the nvme set up. Overall a lovely case and very neat. Recommended

Really nice quality product. A bit fiddly to assemble but worth it. Would definitely recommend this product!
