The present disclosure relates to a camera module and a portable electronic device. The camera module includes: an optical path folding member configured to refract or reflect light incident along a first optical axis in a direction of a second optical axis intersecting the first optical axis; a driving assembly configured to provide driving force to rotate the optical path folding member on a plane intersecting the first optical axis; and a first ball bearing and a second ball bearing supporting the optical path folding member such that the optical path folding member is enabled to rotate on the plane. A distance from the first ball bearing to the first optical axis is less than a distance from the second ball bearing to the first optical axis. 本公开涉及相机模块和便携式电子装置，相机模块包括：光路折叠构件、驱动组件以及第一球支承件和第二球支承件，其中，光路折叠构件配置为在与第一光轴相交的第二光轴的方向上折射或反射沿第一光轴入射的光；驱动组件配置为提供驱动力以在与第一光轴相交的平面上旋转光路折叠构件；第一球支承件和第二球支承件支承光路折叠构件，以使得光路折叠构件能够在平面上旋转。从第一球支承件到第一光轴的距离小于从第二球支承件到第一光轴的距离。
