The Fractal Design Define S2 Vision RGB receives a “Top Pick” award, so it's even better than the regular S2. This new revision has upgraded the design even more. It's a relatively small case for the features that it offers. You can use E-ATX motherboards...

We don't dislike the S2, but there doesn't seem to be a compelling argument to buy the it over the R6. There are sixteen SKUs of the R6 listed on Fractal's site, it has more flexibility in terms of the number and type of drives that are installed, and it...

Fractal Design's Define S2 inherits a lot of the Define R6's design decisions, and as I learned when I put together our Threadripper video-editing build in the R6 earlier this year, not all of those changes are steps forward from the Define R5. The top M...
What I love about Fractal Design cases is that they have always seemed to know what they are about. When they came to the US for the first time they had a clean and simple styling and they have stuck with that same look all of these years. Of course...

The Fractal Design Define S2 receives a “Guru3D Recommended” award, same as the predecessor. This new revision upgraded the chassis to today's standards. It's a relatively small case for the features it offers. You can use E-ATX motherboards up to 285 mm...
Excellent construction quality, Great attention to detail, Excellent mix of materials, Glass side panel construction is one of the best I have seen, Clear glass panel is pretty sweet, Can take up to 420 mm radiator in the ceiling and 360 mm in the front,
Heavy for a case of this size (a side effect of the excellent material mix), Fan controller not included anymore, 2.5" drive bay placement on shroud not ideal, Metal top cover bends easily when separating it from plastic air vent/dust filter, Power LED no

Sleek yet refined design, Improved upon previous design, The Fractal Design quality we expect, Unique tempered glass side panel design, Looks of room for cooling, Easy to build in
None that we found
Fractal Design's original Define S was a great case and the new Define S2 improves upon it with modern features. This case is definitely one of my favorite cases of 2018 not only with its sleek design, but how easy it is to build in as well.First lets tal...
Sturdy chassis, Lots of SSD support, Clear instructions make for easy use
Not particularly well ventilated, Faster fans would improve cooling
A really well-designed case, with plenty of features and loads of water-cooling potential...

The Define S2 is very similar to the tempered glass USB Type-C edition of the Define R6 (the dimensions are identical, in fact), and indeed the pricing in the UK is within £10. The former is geared more towards those with a storage-heavy build, while the...
The Fractal Design Define S2 is a midtower PC case designed for those who are looking for building a silent rig, which offers plenty of space even for highend hardware as well as custom liquid cooling Fractal Design decided to use their classic design app...
