To this end, the portable communication apparatus includes a first housing extending in a longitudinal direction and a second housing that slides substantially perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction and rotates while facing the first housing to stand at a desired angle. A guide member guides the sliding and rotational movement of the second housing, and a rotational moving member is included between the first housing and the second housing to make the second housing stand at the desired angle.
