Quick question on Lian Li UNI SL fans

I am looking to get the white Lian Li UNI fan SL Wireless 120mm ARGB fans and it has a price increase for them to be reverse.

I saw one redditor say that they really like these fans because you can use the normal non-reverse orientation fans and flip them so the backside is facing the inside of the computer as your reverse. Also that because the RGB is not on the fans themselves but it is on the outer part, using the backside does not affect your view of the RGB.

I can see that backside looks slightly different but not terrible so I am considering doing this especially because if I can, it saves me money.

So to double check, is this information correct and I can just flip the normal fans to get a reverse airflow without really affecting the rgb?

Thank you for any help!
