A method and an electronic device are provided, which attach or detaches two displays by magnetism. The electronic device includes a first housing including a first display exposed through a surface of the first housing, and a first cylindrical magnet disposed in a side of the first housing; and a second housing including a second display exposed through a surface of the second housing, and a second cylindrical magnet disposed in a side end of the second housing. At least one of the first cylindrical magnet and second cylindrical magnet is configured to rotate within the first housing and the second housing, respectively, by magnetic attraction of the first cylindrical magnet and second cylindrical magnet being adjacent to each other. The first housing and the second housing are coupled to each other by the magnetic attraction of the first cylindrical magnet and the second cylindrical magnet.

Electronic device having two display devices and method of operating screen thereof

An electronic device and a method of operating the same are provided. The electronic device includes a base, a fixed head disposed on an upper portion of the base, a drive unit that is disposed in an inner space of the fixed head, a movable head that surrounds at least a portion of the fixed head and is arranged to be movable by being fixed to at least a portion of the drive unit, at least one sensor module that is disposed in at least a portion of the movable head, and at least one processor that detects an input by the sensor module and controls the drive unit to cause the movable head to move in a determined direction according to an input detection parameter. Other various embodiments may be made.

Intelligent electronic device and method of operating the same

Disclosed herein is an electronic device that can be cradled at various angles using a magnetic force and a stopper structure. An electronic device according to various embodiments or the present disclosure may include: a first housing having a first cover disposed in a first direction and a second cover disposed in a second direction opposite the first direction; a second housing having a third cover disposed in a third direction and a fourth cover disposed in a fourth direction opposite the third direction; at least one first magnetic body forming a portion of the first housing; at least one second magnetic body forming a portion of the second housing, and configured to apply a force for maintaining a rotatably connected state of the second housing to the first housing using a magnetic force with the first magnetic body; a first sliding member forming a portion of the first housing, and a second sliding member forming a portion of the second housing to face the first sliding member such that the second housing is configured to be obliquely cradled to the first housing by being in contact with the first sliding member.
