Abstract

An electronic device including a main body, a display, and a light emitting module is provided. The main body has a restrictive opening. A pivoting side of the display is pivoted to the main body. A side of the display away form the pivoting side has a latch structure protruding from a first surface of the display. The light emitting module is disposed at the latch structure. When the display is opened relative to the main body, the light emitting module emits light toward a second surface of the main body to illuminate the second surface of the main body. When the display is closed relative to the main body, the latch structure is accommodated in the restrictive opening.
