Abstract
A device for preventing an unintentional key input in a mobile terminal with a removable outer case is provided. The device includes a connection section to which the outer case is connected, a sensing unit for sensing whether the outer case is opened or closed, and a control unit for sensing whether the outer case is connected to the mobile terminal through the connection section. The control unit activates a key input unit of the mobile terminal when the sensing unit senses that the outer case is opened.
