Abstract
A handheld device is provided. The handheld device comprises a housing, a covering means, a circuit board, a battery and a near-field communication (NFC) antenna. The covering means is assembled with the housing to form a receiving space. The covering means comprises an outer surface and a through hole. The circuit board and the battery are disposed in the receiving space and electrically connected to each other. The NFC antenna comprises a metal layer and a transmission element. The metal layer is patterned on the outer surface of the covering means. The transmission element electrically couples the metal layer to the circuit board via the through hole. The NFC antenna is separated from the battery and the circuit board with a distance by the covering means.
