Strapsicle E-Reader Holder
If you own an e-reader, then you are probably familiar with the strain it puts on your hand. Despite aiming to make the reading experience easier, its biggest flaw is its design. However, Strapsicle's e-reader holders have come to the rescue.
This device holder is essentially a strap that is attached diagonally across the device so that you can slip your hand through the grip, giving you an easy hold of the e-reader.
The silicone strap is much more convenient than a pop-socket, as you do not have to worry about its placement, and allows flexibility in how you hold it.
The straps come in a set of two, so you can attach them in either direction—making it friendly for left-handed users as well.
