It bugs me that the two white frames on the front aren't aligned to the text, but overall it's a subtle, if a bit minimalistic, front design.
For the back, I feel it would have been much nicer if the design had been centre-aligned with a blank border, much akin to the front, with the text and images inside that, in a similar block. To that end, the renders and molecules that aren't in the blocks could probably be removed to allow that text above more breathing space. It could also have been nice if you had included that touch of blue text that we see on the logo on the front as well.
Overall, it's a good box, but I think the co-ordination between the front and back designs could be improved. I'm not saying redesign it, but perhaps with a small amount of re-arranging it could look much better.

@Takahashi2212 Better. Still think the text should be justified (PS tutorial available on request), but it is looking much better.

I like the front, but I think the back's a bit messy. I'm not really that much a fan of how you handled the text here, the way it keeps changing size and spacing constantly makes it hard to sit through and it looks like it gets cut off when the top white frame ends. I'm not a fan of the screenshots and the renders are placed either. I think those two dark blue-ish renders shouldn't be there, to be quite honest. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad, but I think it could use some better structuring in my opinion. Sorry if I came off as a bit too harsh on my remarks, it truly isn't my intention.

It may take awhile to show up, but I did update the back.

Updated the back! The update is based on feedback from both Sarashi, and Franco. Hopefully it makes the back mesh better with the front.
