1. An electronic apparatus, comprising:
a support member;
a first body being of a plate shape and including a first surface, a first I/O device being arranged on the first surface; and
a second body being of a plate shape, ends of the first body and the second body being rotatably connected, the first body and the second body being relatively placed in a first positional relationship and in a second positional relationship;
wherein:
in the first positional relationship, the first body and the second body are parallel to each other, the first positional relationship includes a first situation and a second situation, in the first situation, the first body and the second body are parallel to each other and the first I/O device faces away from the second body, and in the second situation, the first body and the second body are parallel to each other and the first I/O device faces the second body;
in the second positional relationship, the first body and the second body form an angle;
the electronic apparatus includes a supported state and an unsupported state;
in the supported state, the first I/O device faces away from the second body, the support member is between the first body and the second body to limit the first body from approaching the second body, and the first body rotates relative to the second body for an angle greater than 180° in response to switching from the second situation of the first positional relationship to the supported state; and
in the unsupported state, the support member does not limit the first body from approaching the second body.
