The present invention is to provide a mobile phone comprising a body and a housing. A hollow is formed within the housing and the body is slidably disposed in the hollow. The hollow has an opening in an end of the housing and the other end terminated at a closed end of the housing distal the opening. A display (e.g., LCD (liquid crystal display)) is disposed on a front surface of the housing. The body comprises a circuit board and an input device. The circuit board is installed within the body and comprises electronic circuits and devices for controlling the components of the mobile phone. The input device (e.g., alphanumeric keypad) is disposed on a front surface of the body for operating the mobile phone. The body is capable of being engaged with the housing and being slid towards outside of the hollow through the opening to expose the input device for a user to make a phone call.
