1. A protective cover for a handheld electronic device such as a smart phone and a tablet computer, with a display screen side, a backside, and surrounding edges, comprising: a. a set of u-shape clips attachable to the surrounding edges and are positioned on at least four corner edges of the device, the clips have shock absorbing mechanisms on multiple sides, the shock absorbing mechanisms include a plurality of shock absorbing buttons and dot protrusions;b. a plurality of stretch fabric straps anchored to the set of clips and positioned across the backside of the device, the clips and the straps protect the device from damage in an accidental fall of the device. 2. The protective cover as in claim 1, comprising: the set of u-clips are arc-shaped and attach to four corners of the device, and two additional u-clips are straight shape u-shape clips that attach to two longer of the four edges of the device. 3. The protective cover as in claim 1, the clips comprising: a. the clips have a front side, a back side and an external facing side, where the external facing side has a profile that matches the edge profile of the device;b. the backside of the clips have openings to attach the stretch straps to the backside of the device. 4. The protective cover as in claim 3, comprising: the front side and the external facing side of the clips have a plurality of shock absorbing buttons and the backside of the clips have a plurality shock absorbing protrusions, wherein the buttons and the protrusions provide shock absorbing mechanism to the device in case of fall of the device. 5. The protective cover as in claim 1, comprising: the stretch straps across the backside are arranged in one of the configurations of (i) cross shape, (ii) star shape, and (iii) V-shape. 6. The protective cover as in claim 1, for a tablet computer, comprising: the stretch straps enable an open hand with its fingers to be slid behind one of the strap and thus attach the tablet to the palm of the hand, without gripping the tablet and wherein the clips and the straps function as a protective cover against damage during a drop of the tablet. 7. The protective cover as in claim 6, comprising: a. two of the u-clips are arc-shaped and attach to two of the corners of the tablet, and one u-clip is straight and attaches to one side of the tablet;b. the clips have a front side, a back side and a external facing side, where the external facing side has a profile that matches the edge profile of the tablet;c. the backside of the clips have openings to attach the stretch straps to the backside of the tablet. 8. The protective cover as in claim 7, comprising: the straight clip extends the length of the side and the two corners and the straps combined with the three clips also functions as a protective cover for the tablet. 9. The protective cover as in claim 7, comprising: the straps are diagonally positioned on the backside that enable the hand to be in natural orientation of holding the hand at substantially 45 degrees without aligning to the edges of the tablet, while gripping the tablet either in landscape or portrait orientation. 10. The protective cover as in claim 6, comprising: the clips have protrusions to protect the tablet to cushion the fall while minimizing the bulk, weight, and sight of the clips on the surface or the tablet computer. 11. The protective cover as in claim 7, comprising: a. the top surface of the arc clips have buttons protrusions to provide a cushion against damage from an accidental fall;b. the back surface of the arc clip has dot protrusions to provide a cushion against damage from an accidental fall. 12. A method for a protective cover for a handheld electronic device such as a smart phone and a tablet computer, with a display screen side, a backside, and surrounding edges, comprising the steps of: a. having a set of u-shape clips attachable to the surrounding edges and positioning them on at least four corner edges of the device, having by the clips shock absorbing mechanisms on multiple sides, including in the shock absorbing mechanisms a plurality of shock absorbing buttons and dot protrusions;b. having a plurality of stretch fabric straps and anchoring them to the set of clips and positioning them across the backside of the device, protecting the device from damage by the clips and straps in an accidental fall of the device. 13. The method for protective cover as in claim 12, comprising the steps of: having the set of four u-clips that are arc-shaped and attaching them to four corners of the device, and having two additional u-clips that are straight shape u-shape clips and attaching them to the two longer of the four edges of the device. 14. The method for the protective cover as in claim 12, the clips comprising the steps of: a. having by the clips a front side, a back side and an external facing side, having by the external facing side a profile that matches the edge profile of the device;b. having openings in the backside of the clips for attaching the stretch straps to the backside of the device. 15. The method for the protective cover as in claim 14, comprising the steps of: having on the front side of the clip, a plurality of shock absorbing buttons and having on the backside of the clips a plurality shock absorbing protrusions, where the buttons and the protrusions providing shock absorbing mechanism to the device in case of fall of the device. 16. The method for the protective cover as in claim 12, comprising: having the stretch straps across the backside arranged in one of the configurations of (i) cross shape, (ii) star shape, and (iii) V-shape. 17. The method for the protective cover as in claim 16, for a tablet computer, comprising the steps of: having the straps are in v-shape and where the stretch straps enable an open hand with its fingers to be slid behind one of the strap and thus attach the tablet to the palm of the hand, without gripping the tablet and wherein the clips and the straps function as a protective cover against damage during a drop of the tablet. 18.
