Abstract
A multi-configuration portable electronic device including a first body, a second body, a dual-axis hinge and at least a guiding module is provided. The dual-axis hinge has a first axis pivotally coupled to the first body and a second axis pivotally coupled to the second body. The guiding module prevents the first axis and the second axis from acting simultaneously. The guiding module includes a track disposed in the first body and a slide connected with the second body. The slide has an interaction force with the track so that the slide can move from the second body to couple with the track.
