Abstract
In an embodiment, an electronic devicehas a panel, a housingthat holds the panel, and a piezoelectric elementinstalled on the rear side of the panel, wherein the piezoelectric elementis installed at a position that allows for the vibration amplitude of the panelto become the highest on the side closer to the center of the panelin the longitudinal direction from the installed position of the piezoelectric element. The electronic device is capable of causing an entire panel to vibrate in a stable manner.
