Mobile terminal

A mobile terminal including a first frame; a second frame configured to move from the first frame in a first direction to switch the mobile terminal from a first state to a second state and to slidably move toward the first frame in a second direction to switch the mobile terminal from the second state to the first state; a slide frame configured to move in the first direction or the second direction with respect to the second frame; a flexible display including a first region coupled to the first frame, a second region coupled to the slide frame, and a third region disposed between the first region and the second region, the third region flexibly bending around the second frame; and a drive unit configured to move the second frame in the first direction. Further, the drive unit includes a driving elastic part configured to provide a tension force and having one end fixed to the first frame and an opposite end fixed to the second frame; and a stopper configured to maintain the driving elastic part in a compressed state when the mobile terminal is in the first state.
