ABSTRACT:
A mobile phone has a cover, a body and a hinge. The cover has a first bearing with a first cavity. The body has a second bearing with a second cavity and a locking plate at two opposite corners thereof. The hinge includes a transverse shaft being inserted in the first cavity, a vertical shaft extending perpendicularly from one end of the transverse shaft and being inserted in the second cavity, and a locking mechanism being inserted in the first cavity and fixed on the other end of the transverse shaft. The locking mechanism can lock with the locking plate to make the cover be stacked on the body stably. Furthermore, the cover can be firstly rotated vertically 180 degrees about the transverse shaft and then rotated horizontally 180 degrees about the axis of the vertical shaft to make the cover and the body be arranged side by side.
