A universal case has a single, unitary, elastic body of flexible and resilient material that can stretch to cover both smaller and larger mobile devices. The body has a side wall, a front perimeter lip, a rear perimeter lip and a web defining a cavity and being integral with one another and formed together from the flexible and resilient material as the single, unitary, elastic body. The side wall, the front perimeter lip and the rear perimeter lip define a perimeter channel to extend around a perimeter of the mobile device. The front perimeter lip defines a cavity and has corner lips with a wider width to define corner pockets. A groove is disposed in the channel, and extends into an inner surface of the side wall. |

1. A universal case device configured for both a smaller mobile device and a larger mobile device, the case device comprising:
a) a single, unitary, elastic body of flexible and resilient material, the body having a side wall extending around a perimeter of the body; b) the body having a front perimeter lip extending from the side wall around a majority of the perimeter of the body at a front of the body, and defining an aperture occupying a majority of the front of the body; c) the body having a rear perimeter lip extending from the side wall around a majority of a perimeter of the body at a rear of the body; d) the side wall, the front perimeter lip and the rear perimeter lip defining a perimeter channel configured to extend around a perimeter of both the larger and the smaller mobile devices when disposed therein; e) the body having a web with connections connected to the rear perimeter lip only adjacent corners of the body with the perimeter channel and rear perimeter lip being free of the web along a majority thereof; f) the side wall, the front perimeter lip, the rear perimeter lip and the web being integral with one another and formed together from the flexible and resilient material as the single, unitary, elastic body; g) the side wall, the front perimeter lip, the rear perimeter lip and the web defining a cavity to receive one of the mobile devices therein; h) the front perimeter lip having side and end lips at sides and ends, respectively, of the aperture, and having corner lips at corners of the aperture, the side and end lips having a narrower width extending inwardly from a perimeter of the body over the cavity, and the corner lips having a wider width extending inwardly from the perimeter of the body over the cavity to define corner pockets; and i) the body having at least two configurations including:
i) a less stretched configuration in which the material of the body is less stretched and the body has a smaller width, height, or both, corresponding to the smaller mobile device and with the smaller mobile device disposed in the cavity; andii) a more stretched configuration in which the material of the body is more stretched and the body has a larger width, height, or both, corresponding to the larger mobile device and with the larger mobile device disposed in the cavity. |
