Abstract

A portable communication device includes a first housing extending in a first direction, a second housing extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and formed at a bottom surface of the first housing so that a predetermined region of an outer circumferential surface of the second housing protrudes perpendicularly outward from the bottom surface of the first housing, and a camera lens module rotatably or linearly movably mounted in the second housing. The camera lens module is inserted into or drawn out from the second housing in the second direction. The camera lens module is repeatedly inserted into and drawn out from the second housing by pushing the camera lens module, and the camera lens module moves upward and downward when it is drawn out from the second housing.
