An overlay applicator tray including a cradle including a device slot. The device slot is configured to securely hold an electronic device in the cradle. The overlay applicator tray also can include an overlay applicator. The overlay applicator can include an overlay layer and an adhesive release liner. The overlay layer can include a top side and a bottom side. The bottom side is configured to be adhered to a screen of the electronic device. The adhesive release liner is removably attached to the bottom side of the overlay layer. The overlay applicator tray additionally can include an alignment piece coupling the cradle to the overlay applicator. The alignment piece aligns the overlay layer of the overlay applicator with the screen as the overlay layer is applied to the screen when the electronic device is securely held in the device slot. The overlay applicator tray further can include a first pull tab on the adhesive release liner. The first pull tab is configured to be pulled to remove the adhesive release liner from the bottom side of the overlay layer and expose an adhesive of the overlay layer. Other embodiments are described.

An accessory device for a portable electronic device is described. The accessory device includes a front cover connected to a back cover. The front cover includes multiple segments rotatable with respect to each other. The segments include magnets that allow the segments, through magnetic coupling, to couple with another segment or with the portable electronic device. When the front cover engages the back cover, a user may remove, or pull away, a segment from the back cover, causing the remaining segments to sequentially fall away from the back cover. In some instances, when the front cover at least partially engages the back cover, one of the segments includes magnets designed to couple with magnets in the back cover, but not with magnets in another segment. The accessory device may further include an opening that receives a camera assembly of the portable electronic device and forms a mechanical interlock.

A modular desktop computing system includes a display stand chassis having a display stand base, a display stand support member extending from the display stand base and including a display device mounting subsystem, and a display stand cover removeably coupled to the display stand support member to define a computing module housing between the display stand support member and the display stand cover. A display device is removeably mounted to the display device mounting subsystem. A computing module is located in the computing module housing. The computing module includes a computing module chassis removeably positioned in the computing module housing and housing: a processing system coupled to the display device, and a memory system coupled to the processing system. The memory system includes instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to provide for the display of images on the display device.

The thin-film photovoltaic cell comprises a transparent substrate and photovoltaic units which are disposed on the transparent substrate and arranged toward the display module, and the photovoltaic unit disposed in the display area comprises a transparent front electrode disposed on the transparent substrate, a light absorption layer disposed on the transparent front electrode and a transparent back electrode disposed on the light absorption layer; and the photovoltaic unit disposed in the non-display area comprises a transparent front electrode disposed on the transparent substrate, a light absorption layer disposed on the transparent front electrode and a metal back electrode disposed on the light absorption layer.

This application describes covers for electronic devices, electronic devices, and methods for making the covers. In one example, described herein is a cover for an electronic device comprising: a substrate comprising a metal; a passivation layer or a micro-arc oxidation layer deposited on at least one surface of the substrate; a primer coating layer on the passivation layer or the micro-arc oxidation layer; an optional base coating layer on the primer coating layer; a top coating layer on the optional base coating layer or on the primer coating layer; and a hydrophobic coating layer.

An apparatus for a deployable screen protections structure includes a body and a strap of a wearable device, where a display screen is positioned on a top surface of the body. The body also include a protection structure integrated into the strap of the wearable device, wherein the protection structure is deployable over the top surface of the body.

An example non-transitory computer readable medium store a set of instructions when executed cause a controller of a computing device to determine a position of a lid portion of the computing device based on a first signal from a first sensor and determine movement of the computing device based on a second signal from a second sensor. The instructions when executed further cause the controller to transmit a command to a processor of the computing device in response to the determined position of the lid portion and the determined movement, the command to direct the processor to maintain a current operating state.

Chemically strengthened glass articles having at least one deep compressive layer extending from a surface of the article to a depth of at least about 45 μm within the article are provided. In one embodiment, the compressive stress profile includes a single linear segment extending from the surface to the depth of compression DOC. Alternatively, the compressive stress profile includes two linear portions: the first portion extending from the surface to a relatively shallow depth and having a steep slope; and a second portion extending from the shallow depth to the depth of compression. The strengthened glass has a 60% survival rate when dropped from a height of 80 cm in an inverted ball drop test and a peak load at failure of at least 10 kgf as determined by abraded ring-on-ring testing. Methods of achieving such stress profiles are also described.

A sheet for a display panel according to the present invention comprises: a base substrate which includes a protective member on one surface thereof, is visually transparent, and has a flat shape; a print layer which covers a part of one surface of the base substrate, has a predetermined thickness, and blocks light transmission therethrough; a filling layer which covers both the print layer and the base substrate, has a flat-shaped outer surface, and has visual transparency; and an adhesive member which is visually transparent, covers the outer surface of the filling layer, has an adhesive function, and is adhered to a transparent member forming the appearance of a display panel.

A tool for facilitating attaching a screen protector of a screen protector assembly to a display of an electronic device includes a tray, an alignment block, and a spring. The tray includes a first corner alignment feature, a second corner alignment feature, and an engagement feature for engaging the screen protector assembly.
