A portable electronic device (e.g. a mobile phone) comprises a display and a user input such as a touch-screen interface. A processor (e.g. 702, figure 35) receives user input commands and controls the display to enable display, navigation and selection of images. A plurality of the images are concurrently displayed, the display of which changes in response to the user input commands. A method for transitioning between displayed images is also disclosed. The device provides an image-based browser 140 for browsing through images, via touch-based input commands. One of the images is displayed in an undistorted format in a primary position whilst other images are displayed in secondary positions in a skewed/distorted/smaller/partially obscured format. In response to a user input command, such as a finger swipe/slide action across the touch-sensitive screen the primary position image is replaced by a secondary position image and itself moved to a secondary position. The user may select the primary position image to select a particular application or device function. Also disclosed is an image-based browser and method for browsing images associated with media items on a portable electronic device wherein the media items may be videos/movies, photos, music albums or data files etc. |
