  • Patent number: 9537524
    Abstract: A protective case is suitable for partially wrapping an electronic device. The protective case includes a casing, a kickstand and an elastic strip. The casing is suitable for partially wrapping the electronic device. The kickstand is connected to the casing. The elastic strip is located within the kickstand and elastically deforms to change a shape of the kickstand. When the casing leans against a plane, the shape of the kickstand is changed by the elastic deformation of the elastic strip so that the kickstand supports the casing in relative to the plane.

  • Patent number: 9413865
    Abstract: A handheld electronic device is provided, which includes a body and a key layout. The body has a base surface. The key layout is disposed on the base surface of the body and includes a plurality of keys. The key layout is a QWERTY key layout and the keys are adapted for users to press with their left or right thumb while holding the body in single hand or both hands. Each key has a curved surface protruded from the base surface and each curved surface has an inflection point. A distance between two inflection points of the curved surfaces of any two adjacent keys is greater than a distance between two figure centers of the orthogonal projections on the base surface of the curved surfaces of the two adjacent keys.
