Abstract

An electronic apparatus having movable input device includes a main body and two input devices. The main body includes a shell, a display panel and a processing unit. The display panel and the processing unit are received in the shell. A display surface of the display panel is exposed from the shell. The two input devices are coupled to two opposite sides of the shell respectively and electrically connect to the processing unit. The two input devices are configured for being slid or rotated relative to the shell so as to be received by the shell, thereby facilitating to reduce the volume of the electronic apparatus.
