Abstract

A stand for a mobile electronic device provides a font stand support surface and a rear stand support surface. Conveniently, the stand is configured to carry each of a mobile electronic device and a battery recharge pack. The front stand support surface and the rear stand support surface are formed in an inverted V shape orientation angled at an inclined plane and joined at an apex along a common edge between the two support surfaces. The inclined plane is angled at an angle to allow the user to view a display screen of the mobile electronic device. A passive acoustic enhancement panel is disposed along a side edge at an end of the stand. The passive acoustic enhancement panel is oriented to reflect an audio signal emitted from the mobile electronic device forwardly of the stand where the enhance acoustic signals may be heard by the user.

Claims (25)
