Abstract

An electronic device includes a display panel, a backlight source, an ambient light sensor, and a controller. The backlight source is disposed below the display panel and includes light-emitting units. The ambient light sensor detects the brightness of the ambient light. The controller judges the modes of the electronic device according to the detecting results of the ambient light sensor. When the electronic device is in a low-brightness mode, the brightness of a white frame of the display panel is greater than 0 nit and less than or equal to 50 nits, and in a general mode, the brightness of the white frame of the display panel is greater than 50 nits. The backlight source includes a local dimming function. When in the low-brightness mode, the local dimming function is in a first mode. When in the general mode, the local dimming function is in a second mode.
