PORTLESS ELECTRONIC DEVICES

摘要

A portable electronic device includes an outer assembly that lacks ports or other openings through which water or fluids may enter into an interior of the portable electronic device, which is defined by the outer assembly and, thus, into the presence of electronic components within the interior of the portable electronic device. The outer assembly may only include a display and a housing, or it may additionally include a waterproof microphone and at least one waterproof speaker. A protective coating, such as a moisture resistant film or coating, may coat some or all of the internal electronic components and/or some or all of the internal surfaces of the outer assembly.
