Abstract: Disclosed is an electronic device. The electronic device includes a sensor that senses at least one of whether the electronic device is gripped by a user or whether a hand of the user is close to a specific area of the electronic device, a display, and a processor that is electrically connected with the sensor and the display. If that the electronic device is gripped by the user is sensed and that the user's hand is close to the specific area is sensed, the processor displays a preset user interface in the display.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a plurality of antennas to communicate with an external electronic device and at least one processor operatively connected to the plurality of antennas. The processor is configured to detect a tracking start event using an external magnetic material positioned at a location adjacent to the electronic device, to track a location of the external electronic device using the plurality of antennas and, while the tracking is performed, to obtain a height value of the external electronic device when an angle between the electronic device and the external electronic device is a specified angle. The processor is further configured to change a specified condition based on the obtained height value, to detect a tracking end event based on the specified condition, and to change an operating mode associated with the electronic device in response to detecting the tracking end event.

Abstract: Provided are an electronic device and an operation method thereof. The electronic device may include: first and second antennas to receive a signal output by an external electronic device; a communication circuit configured to control the first antenna and the second antenna; and a processor. The processor may be configured to: receive the signal through the first antenna and the second antenna; measure a first distance between the first antenna and the external electronic device using the signal received by the first antenna; measure a second distance between the second antenna and the external electronic device using the signal received by the second antenna; determine a movement direction of the external electronic device based on a change in a difference between the first distance and the second distance; and perform a preset operation corresponding to the movement direction of the external electronic device. Other embodiments are also possible.
