Abstract: A cold worked stainless steel bezel (310) for a portable electronic device is provided. The bezel is secured flush to a housing to form part of the case of the portable electronic device. A brace (210) that includes a slot for receiving a wall extending from the bezel is fixed to the housing. 5 When the bezel engages the housing, the wall of the bezel is inserted in the slot of the brace and releasably held by a spring (410) that engages both the brace and the wall. The bezel can be released by disengaging the spring, (e.g., using a special tool or a magnetic field). Because the bezel is manufactured from cold worked stainless steel, it is hard and resistant to impacts. Cold worked steel also facilitates manufacturing within design constraints and tolerances, and requires 0 very little machining after manufacturing to comply with those constraints. The portable electronic device may include a personal media device, a mobile telephone, or any other suitable device or combination thereof.

Abstract: An electronic device having a unitary housing is disclosed. The device can include a first housing component having an open cavity, an internal electronic part disposed within the cavity, a second housing component disposed across the cavity, and a support feature disposed within the cavity and arranged to support the second housing component. The first housing component can be formed from metal, while the second housing component can be formed from a plurality of laminated foil metal layers. The second housing component can be attached to the first housing component via one or more ultrasonic welds, such that a fully enclosed housing is created. The fully enclosed housing can be hermetically sealed, and the outside surfaces thereof can be machined or otherwise finished after the ultrasonic welding.

Abstract: An electronic device may have a display. The display may have active components such as display pixels formed on a display substrate layer. The display substrate layer may be formed from a glass substrate layer. Thin-film transistors and other components for the display pixels may be formed on the glass substrate. An encapsulation glass layer may be bonded to the glass substrate using a ring-shaped bond structure. The ring- shaped bond structure may extend around the periphery of the encapsulation glass layer and the substrate glass layer. The bond structure may be formed from a glass frit, a solid glass ring, integral raised glass portions of the glass layers, meltable metal alloys, or other bond materials. Chemical and physical processing operations may be used to temper the glass layers, to perform annealing operations, to preheat the glass layers, and to promote adhesion.
