LOVE this shell. It's so pretty. Be warned though. If you are trying to piece together a full board, this does not come with the diffuser, which is needed. Or you can find other creative ways cough cough 3d printing cough,
Looking at this in person, the case does provide the look in terms of what we think of when it comes to ceramic (think typical white coffee mug). However, when holding it, despite the ceramic outer layer, the inner aluminium frame beneath the thin ceramic shell makes the general feel to be closer to metal. For fairness sake, the product's description is accurate on this. My only wish would be for the feel to be more ceramic-like when holding it. Once built and while in use, such thing would not even matter though.
The case looks and feels great however the coating prevents the stabs from returning to the up position and one of the screw housings was bent upon arrival.
The look of the case is beautiful but it comes at a price. The ceramic coating adds thickness to the mounting area for your stabilizers. I bought two separate sets of durucks trying to make them fit but ultimately you have to sand off some of the ceramic coating to make them fit properly.
The problem is that while you are able to shove the stabs in, the extra coating squeezes the stabs causing them to get stuck in the downward stroke or be mushy.
Looks and feels great, though not completely free from minor QC blemishes. The thing holding it back is that there is only one Drop Alt PCBA variant (as far as I'm aware, feel free to correct me), which only supports "3-pin" switches, which limits build options.
I was so excited to receive this. It is heavy, nice white color and nice quality but my case came with some small chips and I see some gray area around the edge. It was not evenly coated. It is white so these defects show pretty ugly... Honestly, aluminum cases are better quality than this one. Hope DROP makes white aluminum case.
YanboWuI just received the replacement. Honestly, It looks like previously owned item cause there were dust particles everywhere. This replacement case is more beige-y and yellowish than my first order. I didn't really mind if they are still in good condition but I found a small yellow stain on the corner and one of the screw hole was not straight so my PCB didn't fit. Also, there were no screws included. Customer service asked me to return the item again. So inconvenient. Bad experience from DROP.
