Actual measurement I tried using 14 g ultra-light aluminum bumper "RECTA" for iPhone 5

Cases and bumpers for iPhone 5 using aluminum die casting technology for automobile parts production are "RECTA(Lecta) "series. The bumper seems to be designed to enjoy a unique texture of aluminum while maintaining strength while being lightweight about 14 g in weight, so I borrowed the real thing and tried photographing every corner.
