Poetic Karbon Shield

The back panel also has carbon fiber texturing that provides some extra grip. Even better, the Poetic Karbon Shield is compatible with most screen protectors.

A patterned back with an anti-slip matte finish helps with the grip and it utilizes air cushion technology for impact resistance. A slightly raised lip keeps the display and rear camera safe as well.
