    Abstract: Disclosed is an electronic device. The electronic device includes a sidewall structure that forms a surface of the electronic device and that includes a key area formed on the surface of the electronic device. The electronic device also includes an internal frame that is formed inside the electronic device and faces an inner surface of the sidewall structure. The electronic device further includes a sensor assembly disposed between the internal frame and the sidewall structure, at least part of the sensor assembly is aligned with the key area. The sensor assembly includes a sensor that senses a force applied to the key area, based on displacement of an inner surface of the key area. The sensor assembly also includes a support member having one surface supported on the sensor and an opposite surface supported on the internal frame.
