A mobile terminal including a bar-type terminal body having a front side and a rear side; a touch screen including a display module for displaying information at the front side of the bar-type terminal body and a touch sensor for sensing a front touch input applied to a specific part of the touch screen; a battery disposed in the bar-type terminal body; a battery cover disposed at the rear side of the bar-type terminal body and covering the battery, the battery cover having a first through hole and a second through hole; a first camera disposed near one of both end portions of the touch screen at the front side of the bar-type terminal body; a second camera exposed to an outside of the bar-type terminal body through the first through hole of the battery cover at the rear side of the bar-type terminal body; a rear input unit provided at the rear side of the bar-type terminal body to receive an input; one or more processors; and a memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors. Further, the front side of the bar-type terminal body does not have any push manipulation unit for inputting a control command except for the touch screen; the rear input unit is provided at a rear side of the bar-type terminal body to overlap the touch screen, and the rear input unit includes a button member exposed to an outside of the bar-type terminal body through the second through hole of the battery cover at the rear side of the bar-type terminal body, a touch sensing unit sensing a rear touch input applied to the button member, and a support member supporting the rear input unit; and in response to receiving the rear touch input via the rear input unit, the one or more processors process the rear touch input as a control command for one of different functions according to information output to the touch screen.
