An electronic device for transmitting, to a cover device, data acquired from an external electronic device, on the basis of identification information of the cover device, and a control method are disclosed. An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present document comprises: a housing; a first antenna and a second antenna which are accommodated in the housing; a first wireless communication circuit set to provide first wireless communication by using the first antenna; a second wireless communication circuit set to provide second wireless communication by using the second antenna; and a control circuit accommodated in the housing and operably connected to the first wireless communication circuit and the second wireless communication circuit, wherein the control circuit detects coupling between a cover device, which can be coupled to one side of the electronic device, and the electronic device, and the cover device includes a third antenna and a third wireless communication circuit set to provide the first wireless communication by using the third antenna, and can be set to: acquire, through the first wireless communication circuit, identification information related to the cover device from the cover device at least on the basis of the detection; acquire, through the second wireless communication circuit, data corresponding to the identification information from an external electronic device; and transmit, through the first wireless communication circuit, the acquired data to the third wireless communication circuit included in the cover device.

Electronic device for transmitting, to cover device, data acquired from external electronic device, on basis of identification information of cover device, and control method

Disclosed is an electronic device includes a flexible display, a support structure that supports the flexible display and a housing, into which the flexible display and the support structure are inserted. When the support structure is inserted into the housing, the flexible display is inserted into the housing together with the support structure while being wound in a specific direction. When the support structure extends outside the housing, the flexible display is deployed so that the flexible display is substantially flat.
