For iPhone, every tenth of a millimeter thinner,
there's a tremendous amount of effort behind.
How to keep iPhone thin and light?
That's where our design thinking begins.

Using ultralight space material Vectran™,
setting a new world record, but still offering adequate protection.
In July 4,1997, The Mars Pathfinder released the Sojourner Mars rover. The rover (stowed within the airbag) impacted on the surface at a velocity of about 46 feet per second (14 meters per second) generating about 18 g's of acceleration.
The package bounced at least 15 times before coming to rest, after which the airbags deflated revealing the lander. The airbag is made of Vectran™.
With a diameter of just 1mm, Vectran fiber can lift the weight of 150kg, twice as strong as synthetic materials such as Kevlar. It can prevent airbag from being punctured by rocks or broken when it bounces. At the same time, it is also heat resistant, deformation resistant as well as low temperature resistant.
When designing the airbag system for the 1997 Mars Pathfinder mission, design firm ILC Dover once reported that The Vectran™ remains powerfully strong at -62°C.
Vectran can be also used in space suits for NASA's human spaceflight.
Now, after the trip on Mars, Vectran™ deforms into the protector for your tech gear, ready to provide the ultra-light but effective protection.
Since August 2012, the Curiosity flew off the earth with the curiosity of humankind, it has been traveling for 10 years on Mars.
newcloth created V-jacquard™, using blue Vectran fiber to knit into unique texture, just like the ruts that the Curiosity left on the Mars.
Since Curiosity's main exploration target is Mars's craters, the rover's journey on Mars has been bumpy all the time, climbing craters and hills.
To prevent sidescarping, Curiosity replaced Mars Spirit & Opportunity's parallel wheel pattern with a chevron bend to better travel on sand. This is what the Wheel of Curiosity leaves its unique imprint on the sandy surface of Mars.

Innovative magnet outboard design
created the neo concept of Ultra-thin.
Using the second generation of the magnetic module
MagSafe magnetic force is increased by 62.5%.
7 series aero duralumin lens ring,
220 mesh ultrafine shot blast anodic oxidation,
laser carving, sculpt the sound of faith
Logo designing with glass ceramics, setting beside the millimeter microwave antenna, makes the millimeter microwave still powerful even covered by a phone case. The glass ceramics of our limitied edition has special optical sensing function. Glass color will change when exposed to the ultraviolet light, just like the blue sunset on the Mars.
