1. A method of measuring pressure on a device, the method comprising:
- determining a reference pressure value of a grip of user on the device;
obtaining first signals from a side detector of the device;
obtaining second signals from a front detector of the device; and
determining a level of pressure on the device by comparing the first signals and the second signals with the reference pressure value.
