Patent attributes
An electronic device with multiple modes of attachment is disclosed herein. In one or more embodiments, the electronic device includes a device assembly having a housing; a clip member coupled to the housing; a first magneto coupler disposed on the housing; and a removable member having a second magneto coupler. The second magneto coupler of the removable member is capable of being magnetically coupled to the first magneto coupler on the housing, so the magnetic coupling allows the housing to be attached to a non-edge portion of a non-metallic and/or non-magnetic item when the item is placed between the first magneto coupler and the removable member. The clip member allows the housing to be attached to, and detached from, an edge of a non-metallic and/or non-magnetic item when the removable member is magnetically coupled to the housing, and there is no item between the first magneto coupler and removable member.
