Flexible housing
A flexible housing is provided in the present disclosure. The flexible housing includes a base and a flexible sheet. The base includes a first side and a second side. The first side is configured to be connected to an electronic device. The second side is divided into a first area and a second area via a hypothetical axis. The flexible sheet is configured to cover the second side and includes a part fixed to the first area and a part facing the second area. When the part of the flexible sheet facing the second area is away from the second side, the flexible sheet is bent to form a curved surface.
