MOBILE TERMINAL AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: A portable terminal and control method thereof are provided to control the brightness of a backlight by considering measured temperature and the set temperature. CONSTITUTION: A display unit(151) includes a backlight unit which illuminates a screen. When two or more communication methods are simultaneously used, a sensing unit(140) measures the temperature of a portable terminal. A control unit(180) controls the brightness of the backlight unit by considering the measured temperature and the set temperature. The communication method includes a second generation mobile communication method, a third generation mobile communication method, or a fourth mobile communication method. The control unit reduces the brightness of the backlight unit according to the measured temperature.
