Abstract
A case for a portable electronic device includes a base plate, a device securing mechanism operable to hold the electronic device adjacent to the base plate, and a stretchable strap connected to the base plate. The strap is biased toward a rest position, wherein the strap lies substantially flush with the base plate. The strap is configured to be stretchable between the rest position and a stretched position away from the back of the base plate to allow a user's hand or other item to be placed between the strap and the case.

A case for a portable electronic device comprising:
- a base plate;
- a device securing mechanism operable to retain the electronic device adjacent to the base plate;
- and
- a stretchable strap connected to the base plate such that the stretchable strap is biased toward a rest position which is substantially flush with the base plate, the strap configured to be stretchable between the rest position and a stretched position spaced from the base plate.
A case for a portable electronic device having a front and a rear, said case comprising:
- a base plate having an interior face and an exterior face;
- a device securing mechanism operable to retain the device adjacent to the base plate such that the rear of the device rests against the interior face of the base plate while the front of the device remains substantially uncovered for interaction by a user;
- a strap connected to the base plate and movable between a rest position and a stretched position, with the strap having an elasticity sufficient to bias the strap toward the rest position.
A case for a portable electronic device, the electronic device having a back surface and a front surface comprising:
- a base plate having an interior face and an exterior face;
- an electronic device securing mechanism operable to retain the back surface of the electronic device against the interior face of the base plate;
- and
- a flexible strap attached to the base plate and movable between a rest position and a stretched position, with the strap being accessible from the exterior of the case.
