Abstract
Provided is an electronic device that can be appropriately used as a type of electronic device that vibrates a panel attached to a housing. The electronic device includes a piezoelectric element, a panel, to which the piezoelectric element is attached, that vibrates due to the piezoelectric element to generate a vibration sound transmitted by vibrating a part of a human body, a housing supporting the panel with a first face, a microphone contained within the housing and disposed on a second face, and a buffer that damps vibration transmitted from the panel to the microphone through the first face and/or the second face, thereby reducing noise picked up by the microphone.
