Abstract

A mobile terminal comprises a flexible display module; a hinge frame coupled to a rear surface of the flexible display module, having a plurality of unit frames connected by hinge coupling in a length direction; and a variable frame arranged in the hinge frame in a length direction, of which length is controllable, wherein the display module and the hinge frame are bent or unfolded to be flat in accordance with a length change of the variable frame. Since the mobile terminal may control its curved level in accordance with a use condition, it is advantageous in that a sense of immersion of the screen is increased by the control of the curvature of the mobile terminal if necessary and it is convenient to set the mobile terminal.
