Disclosed herein is an electronic apparatus, including: a base chassis formed as a unitary member from a transparent material and having two faces positioned on the opposite sides to each other and individually formed as a first mounting face section and a second mounting face section; a display unit having a display panel thereon and attached to said first mounting face section of said base chassis; a control circuit board attached to said second mounting face section of said base chassis; and a rear cover attached to said second mounting face section of said base chassis and configured to cover said control circuit board.

Electronic apparatus

An electronic apparatus includes a display unit, a base chassis, a screen displaying section, and operation controlling means. The display unit includes a display region. The base chassis is made of a transparent material and includes a first region that extends outward from at least one end on a circumference of the display unit, the first region provided with one of a plurality of vertically-arranged operation buttons and a plurality of horizontally-arranged operation buttons used for operating a driving circuit. The screen displaying section displays an operation screen in the display region of the display unit, the operation screen displayed in association with a position of each of the plurality of operation buttons. The operation controlling means controls an operational input to the operation screen made by using the plurality of operation buttons.
