  • Starting with the build quality of the Shinobi we have a case which immediately looks and feels different to the average low cost models available. The soft touch coating is responsible for this and it does make the Shinobi look more expensive than it...

  • BitFenix have made a very positive statement with the Shinobi Chassis, offering a high quality product at a price point that is hard to ignore.  The Shinobi features sharp design lines and plenty of configuration options. Case routing is impressive and we...

  • The BitFenix Shinobi packs a lot of case into such small dimensions. I’m used to working with cases which are quite large, and break my back when I try to lift them! This case did not cause me such trouble. It was easily to fit my test rig, and has hi...

  • I like this case, the finish on the front and top is excellent and it generally feels very refined. No corners were cut when making this case, except perhaps the lack of USB 3.0 ports on the front. Now that more and more USB 3.0 compatible devices are...

  • space behind motherboard for cables5.25” adapter for 3.5” 2.5” and floppy drives.
  • Slight wobble on hard drives when using tool free securing brackets, No use made of space in top plastic moulding to house fans, Reset switch may be a little small for big fingers, Front to back hard drive orientation gives slightly poorer cable management than lateral mounting, No short Alchemy SATA Cables available.
  • Reviewing the Shinobi Window has been a pleasure, it is one of the best looking cases I've seen for a good while, being both elegant and stylish. The BitFenix’s SofTouch™ enhances the overall feeling of quality.The Shinobi comes with plenty of coolin...

  • Elegant styling, Spacious, good cable management, Lots of fan mounting options, Great value for money
  • USB3.0
  • BitFenix have opted for a cleaner, sleeker more elegant design in the Shinobi. It's style differs from the Survivor and greatly from the Colossus with its brash visuals and flamboyance. I found Shinobi to have great cable management. You only have to ...
