Abstract

An electronic device includes a chassis having an opening; a display unit and a touch panel configured to be housed in the chassis; and a cover glass arranged on the opening having a main surface region configured to accommodate a display from the display unit and an input to the touch panel, and an end surface region corresponding to a side surface of the chassis. The end surface region includes a first region having a first surface roughness and configured to accommodate the input to the touch panel, and a second region having a second surface roughness that is different from the first surface roughness.

Claims (19)

1 . An electronic device comprising:

a chassis having an opening;

a display unit and a touch panel configured to be housed in the chassis; and

a cover glass arranged on the opening having a main surface region configured to accommodate a display from the display unit and an input to the touch panel, and an end surface region corresponding to a side surface of the chassis,

wherein the end surface region includes a first region having a first surface roughness and configured to accommodate the input to the touch panel, and a second region having a second surface roughness that is different from the first surface roughness.

2 . The electronic device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first surface roughness is greater than the second surface roughness by a surface roughness of 5 nm or more.

3 . The electronic device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first surface roughness is 5 nm or more and 300 nm or less.

4 . The electronic device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the second surface roughness is 0.05 nm or more and 20 nm or less.

5 . The electronic device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the main surface region and the end surface region of the cover glass are provided continuously.

6 . The electronic device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the end surface region has a curved surface shape.
