Disclosed is an electronic device. The electronic device includes a sidewall structure that forms a surface of the electronic device and that includes a key area formed on the surface of the electronic device. The electronic device also includes an internal frame that is formed inside the electronic device and faces an inner surface of the sidewall structure. The electronic device further includes a sensor assembly disposed between the internal frame and the sidewall structure, at least part of the sensor assembly is aligned with the key area. The sensor assembly includes a sensor that senses a force applied to the key area, based on displacement of an inner surface of the key area. The sensor assembly also includes a support member having one surface supported on the sensor and an opposite surface supported on the internal frame.

An electronic device including a housing including a front panel and a rear panel, the rear panel arranged on a side of the housing opposite the front panel, a processor configured to execute instructions and the processor being arranged within the housing, a display device configured to generate an interface based in part in response to the processor, where the display device is arranged in the front panel, a touchscreen associated with the display device and configured to sense a user input, where the user input is provided to the processor and where the touchscreen include part of the front panel, and a rear input arranged on the rear panel of the housing and configured to provide a dedicated input to the processor, the processor providing advanced user controls on the interface in response to operation of the rear input.

There is disclosed a mobile terminal including: a display; a middle frame including a supporting portion and a side portion provided around the supporting portion to define a lateral external appearance; a main board including a ground; a first wireless communication unit configured to transceive a first signal; a second wireless communication unit configured to transceive a second signal; and a rear case configured to cover a rear surface of the main board, wherein the side portion includes a plurality of conductive members of which ends are divided into slits, and the plurality of the conductive members includes a common antenna electrically connectable with the first wireless communication unit and the second wireless communication unit and configured to receive the first signal and the second signal; and an independent antenna electrically connectable with the first wireless communication unit and configured to receive the first signal.

A button assembly of the present invention is configured in a communication equipment. The button assembly includes a button, a tray and at least an elastic arm. A side of the button is recessed inward to form a holding space. At least an inner side wall of the holding space is recessed to form a clamping groove. The tray is disposed in the holding space. The elastic arm has a fixing portion mounted on a side wall of the tray. The fixing portion is extended frontward and is protruded outward to form a contact part. The contact part is extended frontward and outward to form a clamping part disposed in the clamping groove. The clamping groove and the elastic arm are disposed to provide the button and the tray to be fixed or disengaged, achieving an effect of saving space in assembling of internal components of the communication equipment.

The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for managing input mechanisms. In some examples, the electronic device transitions from a first mode into a second mode in accordance with a determination that the one or more characteristics of a user input detected via a second input mechanism of the electronic device meet a set of predefined criteria. In the first mode, a first input mechanism of the electronic device is disabled for user input. In the second mode, the first input mechanism of the electronic device is enabled for user input.

Mechanical micro-switches, such as the power button, and the volume up and down buttons, in the sidewalls of a smart device's frame remain the weak points in terms of reliability. To overcome this shortcoming a transducer, such as a piezoelectric transducer is placed against the sidewall, and at least one micro-slit is configured in the sidewall forming a flap deflectable into the frame. The micro-slits and the flap enable a displacement in a portion of the sidewall in an otherwise very stiff frame that is large enough to be detected by the transducer when a force is applied by the user and a displacement large enough to be sensed by the user, but not too large so as to risk damage of the transducer or other electronic components inside the frame.

The present disclosure provides a terminal, a method for controlling a terminal, a method for manufacturing a terminal, and a storage medium. The terminal may include a housing. A side of the housing may have a button hole. A physical button may be provided at the button hole. The side of the housing may be further provided with a fingerprint recognition region surrounding the button hole.

A button assembly of the present invention is configured in a communication equipment. The button assembly includes a button, a tray and at least an elastic arm. A side of the button is recessed inward to form a holding space. At least an inner side wall of the holding space is recessed to form a clamping groove. The tray is disposed in the holding space. The elastic arm has a fixing portion mounted on a side wall of the tray. The fixing portion is extended frontward and is protruded outward to form a contact part. The contact part is extended frontward and outward to form a clamping part disposed in the clamping groove. The clamping groove and the elastic arm are disposed to provide the button and the tray to be fixed or disengaged, achieving an effect of saving space in assembling of internal components of the communication equipment.

A task switching method is disclosed, which includes: displaying, by a terminal with a sensor installed on a side edge, a first interface in response to a pressing operation of a user on the side edge; displaying a first task window in a preset manner in response to the sliding operation; and displaying a second interface in response to detecting that the sliding operation is ended and that the finger of the user leaves the side edge, where the second interface is an interface of a task corresponding to the first task window displayed by the terminal in the preset manner when the sliding operation is ended and the finger of the user leaves the side edge.

A mobile includes a camera, a control module, and a button disposed on a housing of a mobile terminal, where the control module is configured to perform detection with respect to the button when the mobile terminal is in standby mode with a lock screen activated, and turn on the camera for shooting when detecting that a pressing operation of a user on the button meets a first preset condition.
