Abstract: This application relates to support accessories for use with portable and/or handheld electrical devices having a magnetic element therein. Such a support accessory comprises a housing that defines an internal volume. In addition, a magnetic attachment element is housed within the internal volume and capable of a magnetic attachment with the magnetic element of the handheld device. The support accessory includes an extendable support element carried by the housing and capable of transitioning between a retracted state and an extended state. In an extended state, the extendable support element at least partially extends outward through an opening in the housing such that the extendable support element is capable of providing support to the handheld electronic device relative to an auxiliary support structure (e.g., a tripod). The support accessory may establish electrical communication with the handheld device and affect a function of the handheld device.

Abstract: Systems of the present disclosure can provide a head-mountable device with a head securement element that allows a user to adjust both the magnitude, location, and direction of forces applied to the face of the user. Examples of adjustment mechanisms described herein allow a user to control the tilt of the head-mountable device relative to a head securement element, as well as the tightness of the head securement element. Accordingly, the user can select a fit that distributes forces widely, maximizes comfort, allows the user to enjoy the head-mountable device for longer durations of time.
