An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention may comprise: a housing comprising a first surface facing in a first direction and a second surface facing in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction, the first surface comprising an at least partially transparent part and at least one opening formed adjacent to the at least partially transparent part; a camera positioned inside the housing, the camera comprising an image sensor facing in the first direction through the at least partially transparent part of the housing; and an acoustic component arranged between the first surface and the second surface, the acoustic component comprising a vibration plate configured to generate a sound such that the same moves in at least one direction selected from the first and second directions, a first passage formed in a third direction that is substantially perpendicular to the first direction such that the generated sound passes through the same, and a second passage formed along a fourth direction that is different from the third direction so as to connect the first passage and the at least one opening; a wireless communication circuit positioned inside the housing and electrically connected to the acoustic component so as to provide the acoustic component with a signal regarding the sound; a display exposed through the first surface and positioned adjacent to the camera; and a processor positioned inside the housing and electrically connected to the camera, the acoustic component, the wireless communication circuit, and the display. Various other embodiments are also possible.

Electronic device

An electronic device includes a housing having a first face that faces a first direction and a second face that faces a second direction which is opposite the first face, in which the first face is formed to have an at least partially transparent portion and at least one opening formed adjacent to the at least partially transparent portion; a camera located within the housing and including an image sensor that faces the first direction through the at least partially transparent portion in the housing; an acoustic component structure including a space that is at least partially formed between the camera and the second face of the housing and connected to the at least one opening, and at least one vibrating structure that is located in the space and is movable in the first direction or the second direction to generate sound; a circuit that is located within the housing and is electrically connected to the acoustic component structure to provide a sound-associated signal to the acoustic component structure; and a processor located within the housing and electrically connected to the camera, the acoustic component structure, the circuit, and the display.
