An example keyboard includes a plurality of keys and a translucent backplate having a first side and a second side. The example keyboard also includes a coating between the first side of the backplate and the plurality of keys, the coating to pass light to illuminate the plurality of keys, and the coating to obscure the plurality keys when viewed from the second side of the backplate.

A portable information handling system structure located between housing hinges along one side of the housing has first and second antenna disposed at opposing ends with a cooling fan between the first and second antenna and over the antenna structure to isolate the first and second antenna. In one embodiment, a parasitic element disposed between the first and second antenna and under the cooling fan has resonance tuned to isolate wireless signals of a frequency supported by the first and second antenna.

An electronic device includes a host, a main display, an auxiliary display, and a hinge mechanism. The auxiliary display is located between the host and the main display and includes a sliding part and a lifting part. The sliding part is slidably connected to the host. The hinge mechanism includes a first bracket, a second bracket pivotally connected to the first bracket, and a third bracket pivotally connected to the second bracket. The first bracket is secured to the host, and the second bracket is secured to the main display. The third bracket is secured to the lifting part of the auxiliary display.

A type of portable computer with interchangeable components is provided. The chassis of the portable computer includes an upper part, a lower part, and an edge part. The edge part can be equipped with removable input and output (I/O) plates. The motherboards and batteries of this type of portable computer are standardized with or without optional components such as optical drives and/or 2.5 inch hard drives. Motherboards, batteries and other components can be mounted in the chassis of the portable computer through fixed mounting stands and/or removable mounting standoffs. The portable computer allows the I/O plates and/or the edge part to be replaced. Therefore, a motherboard with different I/Os, a motherboard and other components with different heights, and an auxiliary cooling system can be installed in the chassis. In the portable computer, mounting stands and standoffs can be shared by multiple components.

An example electronic device includes a first housing having a first cover and a second cover, where the first cover is made from fibre composite material, where the second cover is made from metal, and where the first cover is bonded to the second cover via adhesive. The electronic device also includes a display device disposed in the first housing.

Thermal management within an information handling system housing is provided by applying graphene paint to a support structure disposed within the housing, such as a battery casing that supports battery cells, a keyboard lattice that supports keyboard coupling to the housing and screws that attach components to the housing. The graphene paint may have different concentrations of graphene and/or different thicknesses so that the thermal characteristics of the support structure adapt to thermal generation within the housing, such as to keep an even distribution of temperatures within the housing.

A display may have a pixel array such as a liquid crystal pixel array. The pixel array may be illuminated with backlight illumination from a direct-lit backlight unit. The backlight unit may include an array of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on a printed circuit board. The display may have a notch to accommodate an input-output component. Reflective layers may be included in the notch. The backlight may include a color conversion layer with a property that varies as a function of position. The light-emitting diodes may be covered by a slab of encapsulant with recesses in an upper surface.

A portable electronic apparatus including a first body, a second body, and a keyboard is provided. The second body is pivotally connected to the first body. The keyboard is disposed on the first body and includes a plurality of key structures. One of the key structures includes an elevating platform, a key cap, and a camera. The key cap is detachably mounted to the elevating platform, and the camera is mounted at one side of the key cap facing the elevating platform. After the camera is detached from the elevating platform together with the key cap, the camera is mounted and positioned to the second body together with the key cap, and at least a portion of the camera is exposed to the outside.
