Abstract

An electronic device comprises a housing with a housing wall; a rotary-push actuator comprising a transmitter element arranged on a first side of the housing wall, a rotary actuator, which is rotatable around an axis of rotation, especially its longitudinal axis, wherein the rotary actuator is arranged on the first side of the housing wall, wherein the rotary actuator comprises at least one first magnetic element, which is arranged away from the axis of rotation; and an evaluation device, which is arranged on a second side of the housing wall, wherein the evaluation device is configured in such a manner that it detects an axial movement of the transmission element and/or a rotational movement of the rotary actuator relative to the evaluation device.
