When the LTE switch setup menu 1902 is set in an inactive state, the electronic device 101 may determine that a handover for reducing power consumption due to wireless communication is restricted.
When the LTE switch setup menu 1902 is set in an active state, the electronic device 101 may hand over a network for wireless communication, based on at least one of whether a display device 160 is activated, a data throughput, whether an application program associated with a first communication network is executed, the charge state (SoC) of a battery 189, or whether an external power source is connected. For example, when the electronic device 101 performs a handover to a second communication network (LTE mode), based on the charge state of the battery 189 while connected to the first communication network, the electronic device 101 may display information 1912 about the handover to the second communication network (e.g., ‘The device has been switched to LTE for power saving’) on the display device 160 (1910). For example, the information 1912 about the handover to the second communication network may be deleted from the display device 160 after a lapse of a certain time period or when a user input is detected.
