Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes: a display panel including a display area in which a plurality of pixels are arranged and configured to display an image in a first direction, and a first camera module including camera circuitry and a second camera module including camera circuitry arranged under the display panel, wherein the display area includes a first display area overlapping the first camera module in the first direction and a second display area overlapping the second camera module in the first direction, wherein pixels per inch (PPI) of the first display area is less than the PPI of the second display area.

An electronic device comprising:
- a display panel including a display area in which a plurality of pixels are arranged and configured to display an image in a first direction;
- an illumination sensor arranged under the display panel;
- and
- a first camera module including camera circuitry and a second camera module including camera circuitry arranged under the display panel,
- wherein the display area includes a first display area overlapping the first camera module in the first direction, a second display area overlapping the second camera module in the first direction, a third display area surrounding the first display area and the second display area, and a fourth display area overlapping the illumination sensor in the first direction,
- wherein pixels per inch (PPI) of the first display area is less than the PPI of the second display area, and wherein the PPI of the fourth display area is greater than the PPI of the second display area and less than the PPI of the third display area.

An electronic device comprising:
- a display panel including a display area in which a plurality of pixels are arranged and configured to display an image in a first direction,
- a display driver integrated circuit (IC) electrically connected to the display panel, and
- a processor electrically connected to the display driver IC;
- and
- a first camera module including camera circuitry and a second camera module including camera circuitry arranged under the display panel,
- wherein the display area includes a first display area overlapping the first camera module in the first direction and a second display area overlapping the second camera module in the first direction,
- wherein pixels per inch (PPI) of the first display area is less than the PPI of the second display area, and
- wherein the processor is configured to control the electronic device to:
