Description

  The present invention relates to a mobile phone, particularly to a mobile phone having excellent portability. Note that a mobile phone in this specification refers to any phone that can communicate with another phone by wireless communication, and is a concept that also includes a simple mobile phone (PHS, Personal Handyphone System).

  Mobile phones have been miniaturized in order to ensure their original purpose of portability. Furthermore, mobile phones in recent years have not only a function as a telephone but also a function as a camera and a small information terminal while maintaining a miniaturized shape. As described above, as a mobile phone becomes multifunctional, the convenience of the mobile phone is improved, and the mobile phone is widely used in daily life of many people.

  Since the mobile phone is frequently used, the mobile phone is often carried in a pocket of clothes, a pocket provided outside a bag, or the like. In this case, the mobile phone may fall out of the pocket, causing the mobile phone to be damaged or lost. In addition, mobile phones, particularly foldable mobile phones, which have recently become mainstream, are smaller than pockets. Therefore, the mobile phone usually falls down on the bottom in the pocket. In this case, it may be difficult to quickly find and grasp the mobile phone from within the narrow pocket.

In order to eliminate such inconveniences, a number of straps with clips attached to mobile phones have been developed (for example, Patent Document 1). The clip is provided at the end of the strap that is not attached to the mobile phone, and the clip is fixed to the edge of the pocket or the like. With this strap, it is possible to prevent the mobile phone from dropping from a pocket or the like. In addition, the mobile phone can be easily searched for from the pocket via the strap.
