Abstract:
An electronic device can effectively transmit sound even if a force is applied to a panel by an ear. The electronic device includes a panel (10) and a vibration unit (30) that vibrates the panel (10) to generate air-conducted sound and vibration sound that is transmitted through a portion of a human body. The intensity of vibration of the vibration unit (30) changes in accordance with the force applied to the panel (10).
