This application relates to a hardware interface, and in particular, to a USB Type-C interface used for an electronic device. In this application, a step is disposed on the USB Type-C interface to place a display screen. This shortens a distance from a front display screen of the electronic device to an edge of the electronic device, and increases a screen-to-body ratio.

A mobile phone station and cellphone application cooperating to provide the complete mobility expected of a cellphone and yet provide a complete desktop experience. In a fully wireless embodiment, the mobile phone station and cellphone application cooperate to automatically connect the cellphone to a Miracast monitor without requiring user operations. After performing initial pairing operations and monitor selection, when the cellphone meets selected criteria, such as the cellphone wirelessly charging or the cellphone within Bluetooth range and autoconnection is selected, the mobile phone station directs the cellphone to automatically start Miracast operations and connect to a selected monitor. In one embodiment, the user simply places the cellphone on the wireless charging pad and the desktop environment is activated. When the user wishes to leave, the user simply picks up the cellphone and walks away, the environment connections ceasing when Bluetooth reception ends.

Mobile communications devices having moveable housings are described. In an implementation, a mobile communications device includes a first housing and a second housing. At least one of the first or second housings are moveable between a first configuration in which the first housing substantially covers the second housing so that an outer surface of the second housing is covered and an outer surface of the first housing is viewable, and a second configuration in which said outer surface of the second housing is exposed and positioned such that said outer surface of the second housing is positioned in a substantially similar plane to that of said outer surface of the first housing.

A communication structure for both personal communication services and broadly disseminated communication services is described. The communication structure includes a communication unit having telecommunication capability enabling a user of the communication structure to communicate to a remote individual. The communication structure also including multiple displays capable of displaying text, image, video data and further including non-digital advertising surfaces for displaying static images and a speaker system for broadcasting messages. The multiple displays and non-digital advertising surfaces allowing for communication with individuals within visual range of the communication structure. The multiple displays having synchronization capability, allowing for coordination of the text, image and video data displayed. The communication structure being connectable to other communication structures and the multiple displays of the multiple communication structures also having synchronization capability. The multiple displays, non-digital advertising surfaces and speaker system providing a communication platform for widespread dissemination of advertisements and other messages.

A mobile terminal is disclosed. A mobile terminal according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a sensing unit including at least one of a touch sensor and a pressure sensor, a display unit and a controller, the controller configured to display an execution screen of a first application on the display unit, the controller configured to control a predetermined function of the first application according to a change of a value of a first input signal received via the display unit in a state that the execution screen of the first application is displayed. In this case, the value of the first input signal is based on at least one of the area of a region of the display unit corresponding to the first input signal and pressure putting on the region of the display unit.

An example system for a telephone can include a unibody plate having a front portion and a back portion, a back plate mounted to the back portion of the unibody plate, and a touch sensitive display panel mounted to the front portion of the unibody plate. The unibody plate can be of a single piece of milled material. The back portion of the back plate, when combined with the unibody plate, can forming at least one cavity such as a speaker cavity. The speaker cavity can include a speaker mount, a speaker cradle, and a speaker. The speaker cradle can have an interior portion and be secured to the back plate. The speaker mount can engages the back portion of the unibody plate and the rim of speaker cradle. The speaker can be mounted within the interior portion of the speaker cradle.
