1. A case for a mobile device comprising:
- a base wall having an inner surface and an outer surface and being configured to cover a surface of the mobile device;
a plurality of side walls each having an inner surface and an outer surface and being configured to cover a side surface of the mobile device, the plurality of side walls extending from the base wall such that the inner surfaces of the plurality of side walls and the inner surface of the base wall form a recess configured to receive the mobile device, the inner surfaces of the plurality of side walls and the inner surface of the base wall configured to face towards the mobile device when the mobile device is received in the recess, and the outer surfaces of the plurality of side walls and the outer surface of the base wall are configured to face away from the mobile device when the mobile device is received in the recess;
each one of the plurality of side walls joining to an adjacent one of the plurality of side walls to form at least four corners of the case, with an aperture at each one of the at least four corners extending from the inner surface of at least one of the plurality of side walls to the outer surface of at least one of the plurality of side walls;
at least four cushion devices, each extending through a respective one of the apertures and being configured to cushion the mobile device from a force exerted upon the case, and being removable from the respective one of the apertures; and
a cushion device fixed to the inner surface of the base wall and being configured to cushion the mobile device from a force exerted upon the case, and extending from the inner surface of the base wall to a distance such that the mobile device contacts the cushion device fixed to the inner surface of the base wall and a gap exists between the mobile device and the inner surface of the base wall when the mobile device is received in the recess;
wherein each of the at least four cushion devices extending through the respective one of the apertures includes an outer flange covering the outer surface of at least one of the plurality of side walls, and an inner flange covering the inner surface of at least one of the plurality of side walls, the outer flange and the inner flange of each of the at least four cushion devices securing the respective cushion device within the respective aperture; and
wherein each of the inner flanges is positioned from the base wall at a distance such that the mobile device contacts each of the inner flanges and a gap exists between the mobile device and the inner surface of the base wall when the mobile device is received in the recess.
