A mobile terminal and a control method therefor are disclosed. The mobile terminal and the control method therefor of the present invention can: broadcast, to at least one external electronic device, advertising data and a signal for requesting the activation of a second layer included in a communication unit of the at least one external electronic device through a first layer related to low-power near field communication technology; pair with a specific electronic device through a second layer related to specific near field communication technology distinguished from the low-power near field communication technology, if a response to the activation request is received from the specific electronic device among the at least one external electronic device; and transmit data to the paired specific electronic device. According to the present invention, pairing can be performed so as to form a communication channel using second near field communication technology by using first near field communication technology of low energy, when a specific event occurs.

Mobile terminal and control method therefor

A mobile terminal including a main body; first and second speakers positioned in different regions of the main body; and a controller configured to detect a vibration command, to determine if audio contents are currently being reproduced on the mobile terminal when the vibration command is detected, and to apply a first signal having a frequency of a limited range to only one speaker among the first and second speakers so that vibration is generated by the only one speaker and to apply a second signal corresponding to the audio contents to the other speaker so that the audio contents are output by the other speaker, when the contents are currently being reproduced when the vibration command is detected.
