It's small(er). Also the front IO cables make it hard to install a Corsair 240 AIO in the front FYI.

The Lite is made of mostly plastic, that is probably the biggest difference: the materials.

master box 5 lite:
- fake tempered glass
- tinted see thru front cover with very little airflow

- smaller

- full length psu shroud

 

master box 5:

- mesh front for more airflow

- regular side panel (with regular acrylic window) 
- psu shroud not full length

- bigger


i have a full custom hardline loop in a masterbox 5 lite and i like it. it's very compact but it's enough for a standard computer. fitting a 360 rad in the front is doable, but a little challenge because of the front IO cables. modding the front for more airflow is recommended.
