Very good looking case with TG side panel on hinges for easy access. There vents on the side of front panel for air intake. There is HDD bay built in which is really nice. Cable management using the back panel is easy and there are a lot of room to hide cables. The only problem I've had is with the expansion slots cover which can't be secured.

Best price for micro pc case build! Love how it’s compact and the price is i beatable for the white modern design and the inside being black helps the pc look amazing.

I have now worked in two of the gamdias mars e2 cases and can tell you they are amazing for the price.
Pros: -easy to work in.
-cutout slots for cable management were decently thought out compared to many other budget cases. (There was a review somewhere with someone saying the opposite, glad i didnt listen to them)
- glass door is easily removable and allows easy access.
- looks sleek and simple.
- fits large graphics cards.(check specs for your card)
Cons: air flow could have been improved with more holeson the front panel. There are holes on the side of front panel but that is the extent( as a side note i was worried about a lack of air flow in this case but in reality it does not seem to be as restricted as you may think and i consider it passible for budget builds)
- out of the 2 cases purchased new i was surprised to see that no instruction manual was included like every other brand i have ever used. For me it didnt matter but for someone new to building this would have been helpful for them. In fairness, this can be found online.
Other thoughts- the quality is there and you cant beat the price for what you are getting. If you are looking for a budget case i would highly recommend this one. If you are willing to spend more there are better options for air flow. Hope this helps someone out there.

I got this as it was one of the cheapest cases available on Best Buy and i just needed a case. It's nice though, easy to build in (especially sticking a tiny ITX board in it), decent cable management options, comes with screws and cable ties.

The S.O. was complaining that her PC was ugly, so with some Best Buy reward certificates sitting around, decided to move her computer components into a new case. This was by far the best and most feminine looking case they had (though I'd be happy to rock this design for my own PC as well), and in the end, it was mission accomplished as she seemed happy with it.

For the money, pretty solid
Outer materials are strong, airflow a bit restricted in the front but with the kind of components someone would put in a $50 case, it’s adequate
Door hinge is nice, tempered glass
Little bit hard to build in, just plan it out and think it through

The case is pretty good, but it's a bit painful to build in, alongside the front USB 3.0 ports being of dubious quality. However, the gull wing door is very nice looking and is great for accessing what you need to, since you can just slide it up and away.

The side glass slides off for building and is magnetically held normally. If shaken it could open since it cant be screwed on but otherwise not a bad little case

easy to build in for a first-timer, had everything I needed to work with. Love that the door closes magnetically and is super easy to remove, as well as the other side. Love that you don't need tools to remove sides completely and mess around in there. Having a removable dust filter on the top is also great. It looks so sleek and elegant (other than the logo on the bottom right but that's pretty easy to cover up or ignore haha). So happy I bought it, it's a good deal for the money and easy for a first-time pc builder to use. Sorry I will add pics later!

Very easy to build in case at a great price. Only a few minor complaints that have to do with the fact that it came with 1 fan and cheap expansion covers

Absolutely mediocre. The case lacks a great number of quality-of-life features that other cases provide.
You don't have captured-screws. The express slots are metal stamps you must cut out before installing anything into any expansion slot, which came as a utter shock to me. You don't get a set of instructions in the box. You don't get additional screws, you must provide your own to install anything and everything. There is one fan, and it's a 3-pin with no support for stepping up or down by software -- it's three speeds chosen by DC, and it's loud at every speed while not moving much air for the noise.
The aluminum build quality is decidedly mid-aughts Dell in thickness; at least they rounded the metal edges so that you have little risk of cutting yourself, which is an improvement over that horror show of case-ology.
If you tap it, you hear a hollow sound similar to an audio cage. A good litmus test on cases is seeing if your 2-year old child or equivalent weight (~30lbs) could use it as a foot stool, and I believe this one risks collapsing inward if we tried.
It does function as a case. It has okay airflow, and it provides some decent i/o. I used it as a tertiary PC build, but I wish I paid more.
