Abstract

An electronic device with a replaceable plug is disclosed. The electronic device comprises a main body, a fixing element and a plug. The main body has an upper casing and a lower casing, and a plug-receiving portion is disposed at the bottom of the lower casing. The fixing element has a hook portion and a press portion, in which the hook portion is protruded in the plug-receiving portion, and the press portion is disposed on the surface of the upper casing. The plug has plural conducting terminals and an engaging plate. Via the engagement between the engaging plate of the plug and the hook portion of the fixing element, the plug can be assembled in the plug-receiving portion of the main body. Furthermore, the plug can be easily dissembled from the main body by pressing the press portion.
