Claim 16:
17. A method of controlling brightness by an electronic device, the method comprising:
identifying illuminance information from an illuminance sensor;
configuring brightness of a display as a first brightness, based on the illuminance information and brightness data;
changing the brightness of the display to a second brightness, based on a user input;
acquiring event information for an operation in which the brightness of the display is changed by the user input;
reconfiguring the brightness data stored in a memory, based on the event information; and
determining the brightness of the display according to a brightness value in the reconfigured brightness data mapped to the illuminance information identified by the illuminance sensor,
wherein reconfiguring of the brightness data further comprises changing brightness values mapped to illuminance values within a reference range of the illuminance information identified by the illuminance sensor.
