This disclosure relates to apparatuses for housing an electronic device with a biometric scanner. In various instances, the apparatuses are waterproof housings or encasements. This disclosure also relates to protective films for electronic devices with biometric scanners. The housings and protective films may be separate units from the electronic device or part of the electronic device itself. In various instances, the housing is a separate unit from the electronic device, within which the electronic device is fitted. In certain instances, the housing or protective film for the electronic device is adapted for protecting the device from shock, liquid, dust, dirt, or snow while also permitting the biometric scanner on the electronic device to be used. The electronic device may be any suitable electronic device, such as a smartphone, computer, mobile computer, notebook computer, personal media player, tablet computer, or personal digital assistant. |
