An electronic device of the present disclosure includes a first housing, a second housing, and a hinge part for connecting the first housing and the second housing. The first housing has a first primary surface at which an input unit is disposed, and a second primary surface opposite to the first primary surface. The second housing has a third primary surface provided with a display unit, and a fourth primary surface opposite to the third primary surface. The hinge part connects the first and second housings so that an angle formed by the first and third primary surfaces is capable of 360 degrees of change. The electronic device has a first configuration in which the first and third primary surfaces face each other to form an angle of substantially 0 degrees, and a second configuration in which the second and fourth primary surfaces face each other and the first and third primary surfaces are substantially parallel. At least one of the housings is shaped so that in the second configuration, a first clearance formed between the second and fourth primary surfaces increases in size in a substantially linear manner in a direction away from the hinge parts.
