Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a display, a touch sensor disposed in the display and including a plurality of lines and a plurality of nodes formed by the plurality of lines, a memory storing instructions, and a processor. The instructions, when being executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to obtain a plurality of node values from each of the plurality of nodes, change the touch sensitivity of the touch sensor from a first touch sensitivity to a second touch sensitivity lower than the first touch sensitivity based on identifying a pattern by the plurality of node values, identify whether to recognize contact on the touch sensor as a touch input through the plurality of line values obtained from each of the plurality of lines based on identifying changes of the pattern by the plurality of node values.
