Abstract
An electronic device includes a housing, a button hole disposed on a side of the housing, a physical button mounted in the button hole, a support bracket that supports the physical button, and a waterproof bracket that seals, on a side of the housing to which the button hole is adjacent, at least part of a specified area where the physical button and the support bracket are disposed. The waterproof bracket includes a first bracket that makes close contact inside the housing in a direction toward a first surface of the housing and a second bracket that extends from the first bracket while forming a predetermined angle with the first bracket and that makes close contact inside the housing in a direction toward a second surface of the housing that is different from the first surface of the housing.
