Abstract

The present disclosure provides an electronic apparatus ( 1000, 2000, 4000 ), including a housing. One end of the housing is provided with an accommodating cavity ( 1200, 2100, 4100 ). A sound guide assembly is provided in the accommodating cavity. The sound guide assembly includes a sound box ( 1300, 2200, 4200 ) and a sound guide device ( 2300, 4300 ). The sound guide device includes a sound receiving portion ( 2310 ) and a sound guide body ( 2320 ). The sound receiving portion is connected with the sound box. The sound guide body is configured to lead out a sound. An end surface ( 2312 ) of the sound receiving portion includes a sound inlet ( 2311, 4311 ). A tail end of the sound guide body deviating from the sound receiving portion includes a sound outlet ( 2321, 4321 ). A vertical height of a tail end of the sound guide body is smaller than that of the sound receiving portion.
