Micro Arc Oxidation on HTC One S

To create the extremely durable, premium finish for HTC One S we use a process called micro-arc oxidation.

Originally designed for use on satellites and race cars, the process starts with aircraft aluminum. Ten thousand volts of electricity hit the metal, almost like lighting strikes, causing a microscopic transformation which creates a super-strong ceramic case that is five times stronger than aerospace aluminum.
