Abstract: A display assembly includes an electronic display that comprises a collection of substrate layers and that has a first outline. The display assembly also includes a cover lens that: (i) is affixed to the electronic display, (ii) has a second outline that is larger than the first outline, and (iii) forms a stepped area at an overlap between the first and second outlines. The display assembly further includes a frame that: (a) supports a portion of the electronic display on at least two opposing sides of the electronic display, (b) attaches to the cover lens such that a substantial portion of the stepped area is covered by a portion of the frame, and (c) connects to a housing of an electronic device such that the display assembly is supported by the housing of the electronic device via the frame being connected to the housing of the electronic device.

Abstract: This document describes techniques and apparatuses for computing device battery removal. In aspects, described are computing device battery removal techniques and apparatuses that provide simple, expeditious, and reliable methods for removing a battery from a computing device. Current battery-removal devices generally require additional adhesives or fail to provide enough strength for reliable battery removal. The disclosed techniques and apparatuses provide an improved battery-removal device that utilizes a thin member installed on the battery to increase space and reliability when removing the battery from a computing device.

Abstract: An electronic device including a display panel is provided. In some embodiments, the display panel includes an active display region and an electrical component. The electrical component is distinct from a touch sensor device that is adapted to receive touch input across the active display region of the display panel. An electrical conductor connects the electrical component to another component of the electronic device via the display panel, such as via a bent portion of the display panel.
