Abstract
A handheld electronic apparatus with multiple operational configurations is provided. The handheld electronic apparatus includes a first body, a second body, a straight track, and a curved track. The second body overlaps the first body. The straight track is sandwiched in between the first body and the second body. The first body permits a translational motion relative to the second body along with the straight track so as to shift between a first operational configuration and a second operational configuration. The curved track connected to the straight track is sandwiched in between the first body and the second body. The first body permits a rotational movement relative to the second body along with the curved track so as to shift between the second operational configuration and a third operational configuration.
