Google_patent_slipperyphone_grip_092615Google just submitted a patent of a rather odd design aimed at preventing users from dropping their smartphone.

The patent pictured above was filed last week by Google. It features a brand new smartphone with a design that will hopefully prevent users from dropping their device. The patent indicates better grip, but comes with a cost of a bad design. It shows rather sharp edges and a thick body. On the rear side it has ridges for one to put their fingers along when holding the device. Ultimately guided at helping users maintain control of their smartphone and preventing it from slipping out of his/her hand. It will be interesting to see if this ever hits the market. We’ll keep an eye out.
