If you have been keeping up with the buzz surrounding CES 2022, you most likely have seen our latest case design, the Kinetic Series. According to the Kinetic Case’s product designer Namanh Hoang<\/a>, The inspiration behind this case’s unique design was Kinetic Architecture, the concept through which buildings are designed to allow parts of their structure to move, not just for the sake of the design, but with a purpose in mind. As such, the case features 18 individually controlled vents that open and close, according to the systems current temperatures.

Currently the case is planned to launch in the 3rd quarter of this year. We’ve loved seeing and hearing the publics and critics reactions, positive and negative, to what we think is a welcome change to the current PC chassis market. We’ve put together this article with the goal of providing a central location for you to see what various tech reviewers are saying about the Kinetic Series. We’re so excited to see the buzz surrounding the Kinetic Series, and we are also grateful for all of the feedback, critiques, and comments that people are telling us about the case. With this feedback in mind, we are excited to continue improving the Kinetic Series as we head towards it’s launch later this year.

“I am not sure who, if anyone, was asking for the ability to turn their airflow down, but, that doesn’t matter! What matters is that this thing looks like a mechanical eldritch horror that will eat your hand if you stick it in there. And that my friends, is what the CES Season is all about.” – Linus sebastian
