Abstract
Provided is a mobile electronic device including: a display unit that is formed to be so flexible that at least one portion of the display unit is capable of being bent, and that is configured from a first segment of which one portion and the other portion are brought into contact with each other when the display unit is bent, and a second segment that is different from the first segment and extends from the first segment; a sensing unit that detects a shape change in the first segment due to an external force; and a controller that controls information that is output to the second segment, based on the shape change.
