Abstract: A protective case for handheld devices with improved protection characteristics, durability, convenience of use, and functionalities without compromising aesthetics. The protective case includes a “glove” or “skin” piece of a softer material that substantially covers and grips the entire back of the electronic device, by wrapping over the edge of the electronic device (without obscuring the display/touch screen on the front of the device). One or more separate complementary frame pieces, braces and the like made of a hard material are attached over the glove piece, extending over a substantial area of the glove piece, thereby creating a robust interlocking hybrid structure. Openings are provided in the protective case to allow for user interaction with the device, including access to the interfaces (e.g., screens, buttons, sockets, etc.) provided on the device.

Abstract: A combination of protective casing and stand for portable handheld electronic device comprising a base and a cover pivotably connected to the cover, in which an inner space is formed between the base and the cover for containing the electronic device, and the cover could be pivoted with respect to the base to make the combination to form a configuration at least including a triangle in a cross section taken along a central line of the combination.

Abstract: A foldable stand for portable handheld electronic device, which may comprise: a base into an upper surface of which a groove is formed; a cover pivotably connected to the base for covering the upper surface of the base; a strut pivotably connected to the cover at an upper edge thereof and slidably mounted in the groove at a lower edge thereof; in which the groove is formed in such a manner that it could contain the strut when the cover is closed with respect to the base.
