Abstract

A smartphone includes: a first communication processing unit that performs wireless communication by a WiMAX network; a second communication processing unit that performs communication with an external device; a touch-screen display; and a controller. In a state of searching for WiMAX, in a case in which a power supply of the touch-screen display is turned off and communication with the external device by the second communication processing unit is disconnected, the controller causes the first communication processing unit to stop searching for WiMAX.
