Abstract

A protective case for housing a mobile device is provided. The protective case includes an upper assembly and a bottom assembly attachable to (and separable from) the upper assembly to form a watertight inner cavity therebetween. The resulting profile (i.e., external shape) of the protective case mirrors that of the mobile device installed therein. More particularly, the protective case generally includes a top surface, a bottom surface, and spaced-apart inner and outer perimeters extending between the top and bottom surfaces. The top surface of the case is made up of or includes the top surfaces of various other components of the case, and those component top surfaces are flush with one another such that the top surface of the case is completely flat (i.e., does not include an obtrusive raised protective rim).
