[0011]A user can operate the device; for example, by talking, texting, emailing, using social media, or listening to music, all without having to remove the electronic device from the carrying container.

Problems solved by technology

All such means of transport are not ideal as putting the device in a larger carrying case may result in an inability to quickly and efficiently locate the device once placed inside, inadvertent use of the phone as a result of being touched by other objects inside the carrying case or pocket, or inadvertent damage to the device as it moves around inside the carrying case or pocket or from external force to the carrying case or pocket.

Also, once the phone is in a carrying case or pocket, the screen is not easily viewed, if at all, and the device is essentially unusable.
