Mobile terminal and operating method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a mobile terminal and an operating method thereof. The mobile terminal comprises a metallic frame, wherein a metallic piece which is in parallel with and is insulated from the metallic frame is arranged in the metallic frame, the metallic frame and the metallic piece form a capacitor, and capacitance of the capacitor corresponding to a touched position changes when a finger touches the metallic frame. The mobile terminal further comprises a detection unit, an acquisition unit and a processing unit, wherein the detection unit is connected with the capacitor; the detection unit is used for detecting capacitance change information of the capacitor and transmitting the capacitance change information to the acquisition unit; the acquisition unit is used for acquiring touch information according to the capacitance change information and transmitting the touch information to the processing unit; the processing unit is used for conducting corresponding operation according to the touch information. Therefore, a user can operate the mobile terminal by touching the metallic frame, a new operating manner is added to the mobile terminal, the operability and the convenience in operation of the mobile terminal are improved and the operating experience of the user is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a mobile terminal and an operation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The touch screen has been widely used in mobile terminals such as mobile phones. Users can directly touch the touch screen of the mobile terminal. Compared with the traditional physical button operation, the controllability is stronger and the operation is more convenient. In the prior art, the frame of some mobile terminals is a metal frame, and the metal frame can make the mobile phone strong and fall-resistant, and at the same time, it is full of fashion sense and has a good decorative effect. However, the metal frame occupies a part of the edge of the screen, which makes the touch operation impossible, reduces the touch operation area of ​​the mobile terminal, reduces the maneuverability and operation convenience of the mobile terminal, and further reduces the user's operati...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the metal frame occupies a part of the edge of the screen, making it impossible to perform touch operations on this part, reducing the touch operation area of ​​the mobile terminal, reducing the handling and operation convenience of the mobile terminal, and further reducing the user's operating experience.
