1. A flexible portable device comprising:
a display unit configured to display an image; a sensor unit configured to detect a bending of the flexible portable device and a movement of the portable device, wherein the sensor unit includes a motion sensor configured to detect the movement of the portable device and the motion sensor is locally disposed in a bending axis area at a position that is less changed in sensing with respect to that of the flexible portable device before bending and after bending the flexible portable device, such that an influence of bending on the motion sensor is minimized; and a control unit configured to: detect, via the sensor unit, the bending of the flexible portable device, detect, via the motion sensor, the movement of the flexible portable device due to the bending of the flexible portable device, and ignore or bypass a value of the detected movement of the flexible portable device due to the bending of the flexible portable device if the value of the detected movement of the flexible portable device is equal to or lower than a predetermined threshold value.
