A flexible display device includes a flexible display panel, a flexible printed circuit board extending from the display panel, an integrated circuit chip that is mounted on at least one surface of the flexible printed circuit board and is configured to drive the display panel, and a protection member attached to a rear surface of the display panel. When the flexible printed circuit board is flexed to be partially positioned on the rear surface of the display panel, the protection member is positioned between the display panel and the integrated circuit chip. The flexible display device prevents the integrated circuit chip stacked with the display panel from making direct contact with the display panel using the protection member. Thus, even if the display device is deformed into, for example, a flexed or rolled state, it is possible to prevent the display panel from being damaged.

Flexible display device

An electronic device and a method for controlling the electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a substantially circular or oval display, a processor configured to generate content, a display driving unit comprising display driving circuitry including a first driver and a second driver, wherein the display driving unit is configured to control driving of the display, to identify a shape of an area of content which is displayed in the display, to identify the shape of the display, to determine a first area of the display in which the content is to be displayed, to determine a second area of the display in which the content is not to be displayed based on at least a result of the identification, to deactivate at least part of the display driving unit, corresponding to the second area, while activating the display driving unit corresponding to the first area.

Electronic device and method for controlling the electronic device

An electronic device having a display and a sensor and methods for operating the same are provided. The electronic device includes a housing, a display disposed on a surface of the housing, a sensor mounted under the display inside the housing to detect light received through the display, and a processor electrically connected with the display and the sensor, wherein the processor is configured to determine an illuminance of an outside of the housing using detection data obtained by the sensor while the display displays an image and relevant information between the display and the sensor.

Electronic device having display and sensor and method for operating the same

A method for displaying content by an electronic device is provided. The method includes generating converted data by encoding a plurality of screen data according to first clocks, restoring the screen data by decoding the converted data based on second clocks separate from the first clocks, and displaying the restored screen data.

Method for displaying content and electronic device therefor

A display method for a display device is provided. The display method comprises activating a Head Mounted Theater (HMT) mode, the HMT mode displaying two images which are substantially same each other on first and second areas respectively, separated from each other, in a display area of the display device; and adjusting a display time, for displaying a black screen in the first and second areas, of a unit frame time when the HMT mode is activated.

Wearable electronic device

An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention may comprise: a display; a processor for generating a frame image; and a display driving circuit for driving the display, the display driving circuit including an image processing module and a memory, wherein the display driving circuit is configured to acquire the frame image from the processor, generate a different frame image by applying a designated effect to at least a partial area of the frame image, and display the different frame image through the display.
