Abstract: An electronic device may include an input button assembly including an input member positioned along a side exterior surface of a housing component and defining a first input region proximate a first end of the input member and a second input region proximate a second end of the input member, the input member configured to receive a user input. The input button assembly may further include a beam structure at least partially within the enclosure and coupled to the input member, the beam structure configured to be deflected as a result of the user input, a first strain sensing element at a first location of the beam structure, and a second strain sensing element at a second location of the beam structure.

Abstract: A mobile phone may include an enclosure defining a front exterior surface of the mobile phone, a rear exterior surface of the mobile phone, and a side exterior surface of the mobile phone. The mobile phone may further include an audio output system configured to produce an audible alert in response to the mobile phone receiving an incoming call, a momentary ringer-control button positioned along a side exterior surface of the housing component, and a processing system configured to, in response to detecting an actuation of the momentary ringer-control button while a first ringer mode of the mobile phone is active, transition the mobile phone to a second ringer mode, and in response to detecting the actuation of the momentary ringer-control button while a second ringer mode of the mobile phone is active, transition the mobile phone to the first ringer mode.
