A portable electronic device (10) such as a mobile phone comprises two body parts (12, 14) moveably connected by hinges (16). Each hinge comprises a shaft part (22) and a housing part (20), the parts being relatively moveable about a common axis of rotation. The shaft part has a shaft pin (28) lying on the common axis of rotation and a leg (24) extending laterally with respect to the shaft pin. The housing part has an groove (36, 38) and a bore (32), the bore co-operating with the shaft pin and the groove engaging with the leg to restrain the shaft part from rotational movement. The shaft part is moveable relative to the housing part between a first position in which the leg is engaged with the groove and a second position in which the leg is not engaged with the groove.
