[0189] According to various embodiments, the first passage section (610) of the sound wave passage (600) is arranged across the fourth camera module (205) when viewed from above the front (10A) of the electronic device (1), so that the passage length can be reduced compared to the comparative example in which the first passage section is arranged to avoid the fourth camera module (205) when viewed from above the front (10A) of the electronic device (1), thereby reducing sound loss and improving sound performance. In order to reduce the degradation of the slimness of the electronic device (1) due to the first passage section (610) of the sound passage (600) being positioned across the fourth camera module (205) when viewed from above the front (10A) of the electronic device (1), the second speaker (51) may be positioned in the speaker opening (500) of the first PCB (24), and the fourth camera module (204) may be positioned in the first recess (R1) of the display module (201) through the first camera opening (401) of the first support member (21) and the second camera opening (402) of the first PCB (24).

[0193] According to various embodiments, the first thickness (T1) of the first passage space (601) may be greater than the second passage space (602) and the fourth thickness (T4) of the fourth passage space (604). The reason why the first thickness (T1) is formed to be greater than the second thickness (T2) and the fourth thickness (T4) may be to expand the volume (e.g., width or depth) of the passage that is insufficient with only the space between the second support member (22) and the metal plate (52) (e.g., the second passage space (602) and the fourth passage space (604)). The first thickness (T1) is formed to be larger than the second thickness (T2) and the fourth thickness (T4), which can reduce the pressure inside the sound wave passage (600) by expanding the volume of the passage and lowering the speed of sound compared to the comparative example where this is not the case, thereby reducing the pressure difference between the inside of the sound wave passage (600) and the outside of the sound wave passage (600), thereby reducing the occurrence of unwanted vibrations.

[0194] According to various embodiments, the third thickness (T3) of the third passage space (603) may be greater than the fourth thickness (T4) of the second passage space (602) and the fourth passage space (604). The third thickness (T3) being formed to be greater than the second thickness (T2) and the fourth thickness (T4) may be formed to expand the volume (e.g., width or depth) of the passage that is insufficient with only the space between the second support member (22) and the metal plate (52) (e.g., the second passage space (602) and the fourth passage space (604)). The third thickness (T3) is formed to be larger than the second thickness (T2) and the fourth thickness (T4), which can reduce the pressure inside the sound wave passage (600) by expanding the volume of the passage and lowering the sound speed compared to the comparative example where this is not the case, thereby reducing the pressure difference between the inside of the sound wave passage (600) and the outside of the sound wave passage (600), thereby reducing the occurrence of unwanted vibrations.

[0195] According to various embodiments, the third thickness (T3) of the third passage space (603) may be greater than the first thickness (T1) of the first passage space (601). The third thickness (T3) being formed to be greater than the first thickness (T1) can reduce the pressure within the sound passage (600) by expanding the volume of the passage and lowering the sound speed compared to a comparative example in which the third thickness (T3) is formed to be greater than the first thickness (T1), thereby reducing the pressure difference between the inside of the sound passage (600) and the outside of the sound passage (600), thereby reducing the occurrence of unwanted vibrations.
