The color difference continues...

I put this off for a very long time, having bought my Ghost S1 a few years ago. The main reason is swelling and color deviation. For now, the bulging issue seems to be resolved, but the late 2021 color mismatch is still a big issue. Honestly it only seems to affect the sides and not the front. Upon opening the cylinder, one can clearly see that the two parts are finished in four different shades of "ash" or black. It's not critical, but for a "premium" case and a $55 cylinder, it seems a little

Color off in my review

It's amazing that the color mismatch problem has persisted for so long without being fixed. The panels on the case are fairly close, although noticeably removed. But for a pounder, the long sides are a warmer shade of white than the short front and back. Very flashy, have to go back and maybe just forego a hat.

Completely disappointing build quality and finish

The coloring of the upper part doesn't quite match the coloring of the Ghost S1 chassis. Given LOUQE's self-proclaimed "premium small form factor" chassis, this is absolutely ridiculous. Also, one of the screw holes in the bottom of the lid was a different size than the other three, making it impossible to completely screw the bottom of the lid to the rest of the case. Terrible quality again for a premium case. Absolutely disappointed in LOUQE and will never buy from them again.
