Wiring and instructions a bit tricky to figure out
Finicky fan controller.
Hard drive trays do not always lock into place
Especially for a product that has a plastic exterior
I think before the NZXT Phantom 820 was sent to me, that if you had told me NZXT was going to send me a first class enthusiast case that easily ranked among the best in performance, I would've been skeptical. They've had some hits (the Phantom 410 was act...
You really do need to watch the video review for this one, we could honestly write pages upon pages of text to even scratch the surface of this case. The long and short of it is it is a great chassis, it shares many features with the Switch 810, the thing...

Lots of room, Many options for ease of routing, Integrated fan controller and lighting system, Manufactured to accommodate any type of cooling setup, Sleek design, Many tool-less connections
Price puts it out of range of some enthusiasts, Would have liked to see another 8 pin ATX cable, Would have liked to see a fan included for the swivel point
All in all, this case is great! It really has a lot to offer to any level of user. The features can be utilized by novice users and hardcore enthusiasts alike.The quality of this case is impressive. With its steel and plastic construction, this case reall...
Abstract: When it comes to designing new products, NZXT doesn’t take half measures and there’s no better example than the new Phantom 820. After undergoing top secret development for the better part of two years this full tower case is supposed to be perfectly s...
Plenty of fan mounts, Four fans included, Good watercooling options, Very good expansion options, Sensible side panel window positioning and size, Excellent cable management options, Attractive and unique style,
Extensive expansion options, good watercooling support, impressive cable management, and a unique style make the Phantom 820 an excellent choice to an enthusiast wanting one of the best cases that money can buy....
The Phantom series has always had a strong following for a combination of reasons. First and probably foremost, its visual appearance lends itself to being unique and one which is highly favoured in hardware circles, other reasons are the excellent coo...
Quadchannel digital fan controller, Integrated HUE lighting system, Dedicated rear I/O panel light, Six USB ports and an SD card reader, Room for at least two radiators, Lots of aircooling potential, Capacious throughout
Drive trays need work, Plastic accents look and feel cheap, Lots of outthebox cable clutter
NZXT chassis seem to get better with each revision, but the company has a habit of leaving room for a couple of small improvements. The Phantom 820 is a continuation of that trend; it's arguably NZXT's most impressive full-tower solution to date, yet the...
Large tower with lots of space, Sturdy, thanks to a robust steel frame (passed 100 kg bend test with flying colors), High-quality plastics, Room for particularly long power supplies, Strategically-placed openings for cable management (lots of them, positi
Power supply spacer sticks out too far, complicating installation of some PSUs, Finish is thin and easy to scratch, In our sample, problematic hard drive installation with vibration dampening that gets circumvented, In our sample, SSD screws are too short
NZXT have already delivered on some of the most popular chassis on the market with their Phantom 410 and the Switch 810, both of which I'm a big fan of. It makes sense that NZXT would want to combine what made each of those chassis so great in the first p...
