Back protectors are designed with portability and basic defense of the device in mind. Protective cases and tablet shells offer a nice inexpensive, lightweight solution to those users seeking a decent amount of protection for the tablet.

Most often, tablet back protectors consist simply of a hard, inflexible back shell. These provide great safety in transporting the tablet and give extra support to the device. Sometimes, tablet protectors will be accompanied by a transparent piece to fit over the front side as well. These are particularly good at helping prevent scratches, dings or nicks on the all-important screen.

Regardless of material or shape, a tablet projector fits the tablet very snuggly and contains additional holders inside to prevent tablet slippage or movement while carrying. Back protectors are usually made of strong materials such as plastic, TPU, carbon fiber and even wood & bamboo.

Finally, a few manufacturers provide a bit of functionality to their tablet shell cases in adding a stand to the back, allowing the tablet to be propped up for viewing.
