Abstract:
An electronic device (200), comprising: a display; an enclosure housing the display and comprising: an outer periphery member (1208) defining a side surface of a first portion of a sidewall of the enclosure; a front cover assembly attached to the outer periphery member (1208), defining a front surface of the electronic device and a second portion of the sidewall; and a back cover assembly attached to the outer periphery member (1208), defining a back surface for the electronic device and a third portion of the sidewall, wherein: the surfaces of the first, second, and third portions are arranged such that adjoining surfaces are flush to a high degree of precision.
Abstract:
An electronic device comprising a support structure defining a first portion of an exterior surface of the electronic device, and an outer housing member. The outer housing member defines a second portion of the exterior surface and an inner surface of the outer housing member. The electronic device further comprises a protective element coupled to the support structure and formed from a polymer material that is molded to the outer housing member and is secured to the inner surface of the outer housing member.
Abstract:
There is provided an electronic device (200), comprising a display (255); and a housing (840) comprising: a front cover assembly (822) comprising a front transparent member defining a first portion of a front surface of the electronic device, the front transparent member positioned over the display; a back cover assembly (842) comprising a back transparent member defining a first portion of a back surface of the electronic device; and an outer housing member (824') defining a side surface of the electronic device, a second portion of the front surface of the electronic device, and a second portion of the back surface of the electronic device.
