Thermal Management Systems for electronic devices and related methods are disclosed. An example electronic housing includes a housing defining a cavity, electronics in the cavity, and a touch display over the electronics. A heat spreader has a first surface toward the electronics and a second surface opposite the first surface toward the touch display, where the heat spreader is to dissipate heat generated by the electronics. A glass cover is coupled to the housing and has a first side toward the touch display and a second side opposite the first side, where the glass cover is exposed external to the housing. An insulation layer is between the second surface of the heat spreader and the second side of the glass cover to restrict heat transfer from the electronics to the second side of the glass cover.

Techniques for illumination of input/output (I/O) ports on a compute device are disclosed. In an illustrative embodiment, microholes are defined in a chassis around an opening in the chassis for an I/O port. A light-emitting diode (LED) contained within the chassis can shine light on the microholes, which can pass through the microholes. A user of the compute device can see the light through the microholes, allowing the user to identify the location and type of the I/O port, even in dark or low-light conditions. In some embodiments, the LEDs used to illuminate the microholes may be the same LEDs that illuminate the keys of the keyboard, simplifying the design, construction, and control of illumination of the microholes.
