    Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing having a key hole formed therein and including a switch disposed therein, the key hole being formed such that a first length is longer than a second, perpendicular length and a key assembly coupled to the housing, a portion of the key assembly being disposed inside the key hole. The key assembly includes a cover member, a portion of which is exposed outside the housing through the key hole and a pressing member that is coupled to the cover member and presses the switch. The pressing member includes first protrusions protruding from opposite longitudinal ends of the pressing member in a first direction, and the first protrusions are brought into contact with an inner wall of the key hole and have elasticity such that a portion of the first protrusions are capable of elastic deformation.
