A computing device includes a support structure with at least one edge. The computing device includes a cover connected to the support structure. The cover extends to or beyond the at least one edge of the support structure by no more than between 0 and 100 microns over an edge length of at least 100 mm. A fabric cover includes a cover edge and a cover surface. The cover edge and/or the cover surface include an edge feature. A method of manufacturing a computing device is described. The method includes determining an edge of a computing device and based on the edge that was determined, cutting the fabric cover between 0 and 100 microns of the edge of the computing device over an edge length of the computing device of at least 100 mm.

Computing devices with formed edges and methods of manufacturing thereof

A computing device is described. The computing device includes a support structure with an interface surface that has a cross-sectional width. The computing device includes a cover adhered to the interface surface of the support structure along an entirety of the cross-sectional width of the interface surface. A method of manufacturing a computing device is described. The method includes applying an adhesive to a cover. A support structure of a computing device is heated. The support structure is cooled. While the support structure is heated and cooled, pressure is applied to the cover.
