An electronic device according to an embodiment includes a camera movement assembly configured to move a camera module between the inside and the outside of a housing. The camera movement assembly includes a camera connection portion which has a connection part connected to the camera module and is capable of moving between a first position at which the camera module is stored in the housing and a second position at which the camera module protrudes outs of the housing, a push portion which is driven to push the camera connection portion to be moved from the first position to the second position when the camera connection portion is at the first position and is driven to be separated from the camera connection portion when the camera connection portion is at the second position, a restoring member which provides a restoration force to the camera connection portion to return the camera connection portion from the second position to the first position, and a locking portion which restricts a position movement of the camera connection portion when the camera connection portion is at the second position. When the camera module protrudes out of the housing, the camera connection portion is maintained by the locking portion at the second position, and a space may exist between the camera connection portion and the push portion.
