Abstract

The invention provides an electronic device, mobile phone and a method for controlling the electronic device. An electronic device includes a first body; an operation key provided on the operation surface of the first body; a cover unit that is connected to the first body and that switches between an open state where the operation key is exposed and a closed state where the operation key is covered with the cover unit; an opening-closing detecting unit configured to detect opening and closing of the cover unit; and a key depression determining unit configured to determine that depression of the operation key is effective if the time during which the operation key is pressed exceeds a predetermined determination time. The key depression determining unit sets the determination time to a first determination time if the cover unit is opened and sets the determination time to a second determination time longer than the first determination time if the cover unit is closed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electronic device, a mobile phone, and a method of controlling the electronic device. In particular, the present invention relates to a small mobile phone, an electronic device for the small mobile phone, and a method of controlling the electronic device. Background technique [0002] Recently, small portable electronic devices, such as mobile phones and PDAs, are widely used. [0003] Many such electronic devices each include a display unit equipped with, for example, a liquid crystal display, and an operation unit equipped with operation keys including a power key and numeric keys. The display unit is located at a position where a user can easily view the display unit, and the operation unit is located at a position where a user can easily operate the operation unit. The display unit and the operation unit are located on one body, or on separate bodies. For example, the latter case applies to folding mobile phon...
