ELECTRONIC DEVICES WITH TEXTURED GLASS AND GLASS CERAMIC COMPONENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18389572 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICES WITH TEXTURED GLASS AND GLASS CERAMIC COMPONENTS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes electronic devices with a textured cover member that is positioned over components of the device. Different surface regions of the textured component may have varying textures to create optical contrast, such as differences in gloss or translucency. In some cases, the cover member may have a protruding feature with differently textured surface regions compared to adjacent regions.
- Electronic devices with textured cover members

Original Abstract Submitted
Electronic devices including a textured component such as a cover member positioned over one or more components of the electronic device. Different surface regions of the textured component may be textured differently in order to provide optical contrast. For example, differently textured surface regions may differ in gloss, translucency, or both. In some cases the cover member defines a protruding feature and a surface region of the protruding feature is textured differently than an adjacent surface region.
