You can actually appreciate the slim and sleek design of your iPhone 5 with the Radius iPhone Cover. Unlike most smartphone protectors, this one crosses a miniscule surface area on the back of the device and goes practically unnoticed when observed from the front.
This is accomplished by using less material more effectively. Specifically, mod-3 makes use of extraordinarily durable aircraft grade aluminum. The metal is cut into the thin form of an X, so to reach out and connect with each corner. Stainless steel screws join this bracket to the tiny non-slip corner grips that accommodate and buffer the camera lens and flash.
At under 5 grams, the Radius iPhone Cover is less than a quarter of the weight of the aluminum buffer cases on the market. You'll barely know it's there until you accidentally drop your device.
