Abstract
An electronic device housing includes an outer casing, a microphone, and a recess in the outer casing proximate to the microphone. A base of the recess has a first adhesive portion and an adjacent first non-adhesive portion, and a hole is defined in the first non-adhesive portion and the recess. The hole and the recess define an acoustic pathway for sound external to the outer casing to reach the microphone. The first adhesive portion and the first non-adhesive portion have different shapes.
