Mobile terminal housing
A mobile terminal housing includes a rear plate made of transparent material and a front plate coupled with the rear plate. The mobile terminal housing further includes a plastic member fitting closely to the rear plate and positioned between the rear plate and the front plate and a mirror coating. The rear plate includes an outer surface and an inner surface opposite to each other. The plastic member forms a light transmission hole. The mirror coating is positioned on the outer surface of the rear plate and overlaps the light transmission hole, and a size of the mirror coating is larger than that of the light transmission hole. The mobile terminal housing is able to give visual indications of activity even when resting on its face.
