1. A mobile terminal comprising:

  • a display unit;

    a metal plate having a seating portion supporting a rear surface of the display unit and having a first coupling portion along an edge of the seating portion;

    a middle case surrounding a side of the metal plate and having a second coupling portion covering a lateral surface of the metal plate; and

    a rear case coupled to a rear surface of the middle case and defining an exterior of the mobile,wherein the middle case is configured to form a gap between an inner side of the middle case and an outer side of the first coupling portion and be fixed to the metal plate based on a molding unit inserted in the gap,wherein the first coupling portion is continuously formed in the edge of the seating portion along a vertical direction,wherein a thickness of the first coupling portion of the metal plate is greater than a thickness of the seating portion of the metal plate, andwherein the molding unit is formed of a material with low heat transfer coefficient to induce heat along the first coupling portion.
