Abstract
According to one embodiment, a display device includes: a communication unit which communicates with an external entity; a display including a display area in which a content is output; a motor which controls the display to expose a part of the display area to the outside; and a control unit. When an event is sensed in a state where the display is in a first mode, the control unit changes the display from the first mode to a second mode; when the event is sensed in a state where the display is in the second mode, the control unit changes the display from the second mode to a third mode; in the first mode, the display area is not exposed to the outside; in the second mode, the display area is partially exposed to the outside; and in the third mode, the display area is fully exposed to the outside.
