A cover member includes a base material having a film shape and containing an amorphous aromatic polyamide. Further, it is preferred that the aromatic polyamide contains a carboxyl group. Furthermore, it is preferred that the aromatic polyamide contains a rigid structure in an amount of 85 mol % or more. Moreover, it is preferred that a tensile elastic modulus of the base material is 4 GPa or more. This makes it possible to provide a cover member having a good flatness keeping property and excellent long-term durability, and an electronic device provided with such a cover member and having excellent reliability.
