Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device may include a display including a front surface area and a side surface area disposed in at least one side of the front surface area, a first sensor included under the side surface area and configured to sense pressure applied to the side surface area; and a processor operatively connected with the display and the first sensor. The processor may be configured to determine a position of at least one point of the side surface area corresponding to the sensed pressure, if the sensed pressure using the first sensor is within a first specified range, and to display at least one graphic object on an area corresponding to the determined position.
