Abstract

An electronic device includes a flexible display, a sensing unit configured to obtain bending information including at least one of a bending degree, the number of times of bending, a bending maintaining duration, and a bending speed of the display, and a controller configured to additionally display a second image on the display when the display is bent in a state in which a first image is displayed, and complementarily change transparency of the first image and that of the second image to reflect the bending information obtained by the sensing unit.
