I like it. Has a pretty nice and plain exterior which I prefer.

If you regard my facts as wrong, feel free to rectify it.

Looks pretty nice. I like this over the Bitfenix Prodigy but no case handles :(

Looks are subjective. The thermals on that case aren't great, it doesn't have a dust filter on the front intake, and the rear fan runs quite noisy. Its name "Dead Silence" is a bit misleading, as there are more silent options for similar money. Maybe not with very similar dimensions, but they exist in mATX form factors nonetheless. There's nothing particularly bad in terms of design other than the fact that for the price, you aren't really getting what you're paying for. If you're willing to cool it with aftermarket options, it will serve you well, but I would recommend looking elsewhere. There are a lot of cases that look aesthetically similar that can carry an mATX build, with better performance. The BitFenix Phenom M is one example. However, if you asked me, I'd want the best performer that also looks good. If I were picking an mATX case, I'd go with the Fractal Design Arc Mini R2, or the Corsair 350D, which are around that same price range in the UK. The Silverstone SG09 is another good option, but it can be a bit pricey sometimes. However, on Scan.co.uk, it's a good value right now.

I really wanted to get this, but at the time, no one in GVA had one in stock. 

 

P.S. The Prodigy technically doesn't have "handles" either. I wouldn't use those flexy wings as handles personally.  ^_^
