A watch-type mobile terminal comprises: a main body having a display unit mounted on the front side thereof; a band connected to the main body and wound around a wrist of a user; a battery mounted in the main body; and a wireless charging coil which is positioned in at least one of a side surface and the front surface of the main body and the band and has electric current flow according to a change in a surrounding magnetic field to charge the battery. The watch-type mobile terminal can be charged on the wrist of the user, without the need to be separated from the wrist, and can improve the charging efficiency by minimizing an electromagnetic wave which is influenced by the human body, since the watch-type mobile terminal is at a certain distance away from the wrist.
