Abstract
The disclosure relates to a housing for an electronic device. The housing comprises: a back housing defining an interior compartment of the device; a receptacle to receive a first locking feature from a cover for the electronic device; and at least one moveable second locking feature in the receptacle to engage the first locking feature to hold the cover to the back housing. In the back housing the second locking feature is selectively moved from a first engaged position with the first locking feature to a second disengaged position with the first locking feature when a predefined force is applied at a specific location at the back housing or the cover.
