Abstract:
1. A portable electronic device comprising: a first controller configured for controlling a first group of functional applications and generating a first group of functional interfaces; a second controller configured for controlling a second group of functional applications and generating a second group of functional interfaces; a mode switch unit configured for a user to operate for generating a mode switch instruction; and a main controller configured for switching a work mode according to the mode switch instruction from the mode switch unit; wherein when the mode switch unit generates a first mode switch instruction, the device enters a common work mode in which the main controller activates the first controller and the second controller to be on standby; and when the mode switch unit generates a second mode switch instruction, the device enters a single work mode in which the main controller activates only one of the first controller and the second controller to be on standby; and wherein in the common work mode, the main controller controls to display a public functional interface, the public functional interface provides two optional icons for entering two work states corresponding to the first and the second controllers; in the single work mode, the main controller controls to display a single functional interface, the single functional interface provides one optional icon for entering a work state corresponding to one controller which is activated by the main controller; wherein the first controller is a media player controller for controlling audio/video applications, and the second controller is a mobile communications controller for controlling wireless communications applications; wherein in the common work mode, the device displays the public functional interface for displaying a first group of basic information, and the first group of basic information comprises signal strength, battery capacity, current time and date, and the two optional icons for entering an Mp3 work state and a GSM work state; and wherein in the single work mode, the device displays the single functional interface for displaying a second group of basic information, and the second group of basic information comprises battery capacity, current time and date, and the optional icon for entering the Mp3 work state.
