A mobile terminal and a method for controlling power thereof are provided. The method includes determining, if a power on/off key for turning off power is input, whether a quick power off mode is selected, converting, if a quick power off mode is selected, a power mode of a controller and of a storage unit of the mobile terminal into a power save mode and turning off power to components of the mobile terminal other than the controller and storage unit. Accordingly, a user can reduce the time required for turning on and off power of the mobile terminal. Also, the user can control power of the mobile terminal according to circumstances. |
