Abstract

A one-hand-holding aid for tablet personal computer (PC) mainly includes a handhold member pivotally connected at a proximal end to a back of a tablet PC. The handhold member is provided at the proximal end with a tightness-adjustable fastening band for conveniently binding around a user's wrist or elbow. The user may stably and safely hold the tablet PC with only one hand by gripping at the handhold member and binding the fastening band around the wrist or elbow, and turn the tablet PC to any desired direction and angle during operation without the risk of dropping the tablet PC. Even with the handhold member, the tablet PC may still be used on a desktop and connected to a keyboard as desired.
