A device support stand assembly comprising:
- a removable support stand member having an attachment feature for coupling to a corresponding mating element formed on a rear side of a portable electronic device,
- wherein the support stand member includes a tension spring configured for dual operating positions with respect to the portable electronic device.
A removable support stand assembly including a tablet device, the assembly comprising:
- a flexible housing;
- a first attachment feature formed near a back surface of the tablet device;
- a second attachment feature formed within the flexible housing and configured to engage with the first attachment feature associated with the tablet device, and
- an adjustable tension spring formed adjacent to the second attachment feature for enabling dual operating states with respect to an attached tablet device.
A device support stand assembly comprising:
- a tablet casing including a first magnet formed on a rear surface;
- and
- a removable support stand member including a second magnet formed with a flexible housing for magnetic coupling with the tablet casing and a tension spring for enabling both a closed operating state and a standing operating state,
- wherein when in the closed operating state the removable support stand member lies flush against the tablet casing, and
