Benefits of technology

[0006]Aspects and embodiments of the present invention are directed to a grip for a handheld electronic device, as well as systems and methods of attaching the grip to the handheld electronic device, and of using the grip. For example, the grip includes strap formed into a loop that can be attached to the back side of a handheld electronic device. The loop extends from the back side of the handheld electronic device so that the user can secure the handheld electronic device with one hand by inserting at least one finger through the loop. By securing the handheld electronic device in this manner, the user can comfortably access the features of the handheld electronic device in a variety of ergonomic positions, such while lying down or walking. The user may also manipulate a user interface of the handheld electronic device with the thumb of the same hand that secures the handheld electronic device.

Problems solved by technology

These portable electronic devices rely on sensitive and fragile components and are made from materials that can be damaged if not handled with care.
If dropped, portable electronic devices can break and data can be lost.
