- a soft protective case which comprises a back panel to cover a back portion of the electronic device, a raised wall formed on a bottom surface of the back panel to form the storage compartment, and a side wall extending from a top surface of the back panel along edges of the back panel for significantly covering a side portion of the electronic device;
a hard protective frame, configured to removably mount over the soft protective case wherein the hard protective frame comprises grooves; and
a cover which includes rails adapted to mate with and to be slidably mounted on the grooves so that the cover slides along the grooves to open and close the storage compartment,wherein the soft protective case significantly covers a back portion of the electronic device with the top surface of the back panel and a side portion of the electronic device with the side wall of the soft protective case,wherein the soft protective case is sufficiently flexible to accept insertion of the electronic device therein and sufficiently rigid to securely retain the inserted electronic device.
