A sliding type of a portable terminal is provided. The terminal includes a first housing, a second housing adapted to slide on the first housing, and a sliding module for coupling the second housing to the first housing so as to slide. The sliding module includes a guide member mounted on a surface of the first housing, at least one guide hole extending in a longitudinal direction of the guide member, and a slide member extending through the guide member via the guide hole to be mounted on the second housing, the slide member moving along the guide hole and supporting a sliding movement of the second housing. The portable terminal limits the play of the housings in other directions than the sliding direction. This guarantees a smooth sliding movement and improves the structural stability of the terminal.
