Abstract

Various embodiments relate to a foldable electronic device and a method for detecting a touch input by a foldable electronic device. The method may include: detecting an angle between a first housing and a second housing; and adjusting a touch-sensing sensitivity on at least a portion of a third side adjacent to a first side to be lower than a touch-sensing sensitivity on the first side based on a touch input being detected on the first side where the angle is smaller than a specified angle.
