An electronic device and method for cancelling wind noise from a sound signal input through a microphone is provided. An electronic device of the present disclosure includes an input device comprising input circuitry, an output device comprising output circuitry, and a processor configured to control the input device to acquire a first signal corresponding to external sound of the electronic device, to generate a second signal by delaying the first signal for a predetermined amount of time, to detect a third signal corresponding to the wind sound in the first signal using a predetermined detection method based on the first and second signals, and to control the output device to output a fourth signal obtained by controlling the third signal in the first signal.
