A semiconductor device having an eye-friendly display function is provided. When a display portion displays text, a difference between a gray level of the text and a gray level of a background of the text is reduced depending on a scrolling speed of a screen of the display portion. In other words, during fast scrolling, text visibility is lowered by bringing the gray level of the text closer to the gray level of the background. This can prevent a user from following the text with eyes at the time of fast scrolling, thereby eliminating unnecessary movement of eye muscles and reducing stimuli to the optic nerve. In this manner, eye strain can be reduced.
