Nice review. I've been eyeing the aluminus for a while now and just got one a week ago.

I was surprised that the whole case was so light, even when it was still in the box.

For me, a case's heft spells quality and durability. The aluminus was so light I kind of questioned how long it was going to last.

Is this the benefit of aluminum, light, and prone to dings and bends?

It's a unique case but it was kind of flimsy compared to the others.
