The present invention is to provide a portable device, such as a wrist watch, which realizes, with a simple structure, improved waterproof property against water leak associated with a push-in operation. A wrist watch (portable device) includes an outer case (device outer housing), an operation member and a holding ring. The outer case includes a holding portion in which an annular bearing surface is formed. The operation member is made of a soft material having waterproof performance. The operation member includes an annular packing portion to be seated on the bearing surface and a push-in portion integrally connected to the bearing portion, to which the push-in operation is performed from the outside of the device outer housing.

The invention provides a press key and an electronic device with the same. The press key consists of four parts, i.e. a press member, a return member, a push member and a waterproof ring, wherein the waterproof ring made of a flexible material is clamped between two round rings of the push member; the return member made of the flexible material is clamped between one end of the push member and one round ring; the shell body of the electronic device squeezes the waterproof ring; the waterproof ring closely clings to the shell body and the cylinder of the push member so as to prevent dust and water from entering the electronic device; meanwhile, when the external force is applied onto the press member, the end face of the return member squeezing the shell body of the electronic device is elastically deformed; the other end of the push member squeezes a press key membrane of the electronic device, so that the conductive function of the press key is achieved; once the external force applied on the press member disappears, the return member in the elastic deformation generates elastic force, causing the whole press key to return to the initial state. Therefore, the press key not only is simple in structure, but also causes the electronic device with the press key to have high dustproof and waterproof properties.

Representing activities on an electronic calendar, in one aspect, may include receiving a first amount of allocated time for a first type of activity having a duration but not scheduled for a time, receiving a second amount of allocated time for a second type of activity having a duration and a scheduled time, and displaying, in a single representation, a total amount of allocated time for both the first type of activity having a duration but not scheduled for a time and the second type of activity having a duration and a schedule time. Different types, quantities, and qualities of information relating to when the first type of activity and the second type of activity occur may be combined in the single representation.

An electronic device is provided which includes a housing, a first plate, a second plate, and a side member, a touch screen display that includes a touch panel, the touch screen display located within the housing and exposed through at least a part of the first plate, a sensor within the housing and configured to detect an atmospheric pressure variation, a processor electrically connected with the touch screen display and the sensor, and a memory electrically connected to the processor, the memory stores instructions which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to receive a touch input caused by pressing a part of the touch screen display by using the touch screen display, monitor the atmospheric pressure variation using the sensor while receiving the touch input, and provide a changed and / or selected function of the touch screen display based on the monitored atmospheric pressure variation and the touch input.
