A portable telephone set having a cover attached rotatably to a body. When closed, the cover covers and protects a switch portion of the telephone set, while when opened, it is held in a stable position at a predetermined angle relative to the body by means of a cover holding mechanism. The cover is held with respect to the body by the cover holding mechanism so that the cover is disengaged from the body when it is about to be opened forcibly beyond an allowable range of its rotation. Since the cover when opened can function as a sound collector, it is possible to provide a microphone on the body side and attain the reduction in size of the portable telephone set.
