Abstract: A mobile phone may include an enclosure defining a front exterior surface of the mobile phone, a rear exterior surface of the mobile phone, and a side exterior surface of the mobile phone. The mobile phone may further include an audio output system configured to produce an audible alert in response to the mobile phone receiving an incoming call, a momentary ringer-control button positioned along a side exterior surface of the housing component, and a processing system configured to, in response to detecting an actuation of the momentary ringer-control button while a first ringer mode of the mobile phone is active, transition the mobile phone to a second ringer mode, and in response to detecting the actuation of the momentary ringer-control button while a second ringer mode of the mobile phone is active, transition the mobile phone to the first ringer mode.

Abstract: An electronic device may include an input button assembly including an input member positioned along a side exterior surface of a housing component and defining a first input region proximate a first end of the input member and a second input region proximate a second end of the input member, the input member configured to receive a user input. The input button assembly may further include a beam structure at least partially within the enclosure and coupled to the input member, the beam structure configured to be deflected as a result of the user input, a first strain sensing element at a first location of the beam structure, and a second strain sensing element at a second location of the beam structure.

Abstract: A portable electronic device may include a housing having a wall defining an opening in the housing and at least a portion of four side surfaces of the portable electronic device. The portable electronic device may further include a display at least partially within the housing, a front cover positioned in the opening in the housing and over the display, the front cover defining a front surface, a peripheral side surface extending from the front surface and at least partially surrounded by the wall of the housing, and a notch that, together with a portion of the wall of the housing, defines an acoustic port of the portable electronic device. The electronic device may further include an acoustic port cover positioned at least partially in the acoustic port and a speaker at least partially within the housing and configured to direct sound through the acoustic port cover.

Abstract: A device includes a button, a base, a haptic engine coupled to the base, and a fastener fastening the button to the base and allowing movement of the button with respect to the base. The movement of the button with respect to the base enables, in part, a better alignment of the button with a device housing to which the base is attached. The haptic engine may include a core, an electric coil wound around a portion of the core, and an attraction plate separated from the core by a gap. The base may include a frame, a set of tabs extending from the core and fastened to the button to allow the movement of the button with respect to the base, and a set of flexures extending from the tabs and coupling the core to the frame. The attraction plate may also be coupled to the frame.

Abstract: A portable electronic device includes a housing, a sensor array including a first camera module having a first field of view, a second camera module having a second field of view different from the first field of view, and a light source, and a rear cover formed from a glass material and defining a raised sensor array region positioned over the sensor array. The raised sensor array region defines a first hole extending through the rear cover and positioned proximate a first corner region of the raised sensor array region, and a second hole extending through the rear cover and positioned proximate a second corner region diagonal from the first corner region. The first camera module includes a first camera housing defining a recess at a corner of the first camera housing, and the second camera module includes a second camera housing extending into the recess.
