1. An electronic device comprising:
- a touch panel that detects a grasp by detecting an approach of a body part outside an edge of the touch panel, and detects a contact of a body part on the touch panel; and
a vibration device,wherein, while the touch panel detects the grasp, when the touch panel detects the contact, the vibration device vibrates at least a portion of the electronic device for a predetermined time; and
wherein, while the touch panel does not detect the grasp, when the touch panel detects the contact, no portion of the electronic device vibrates.

7. A vibration control method employable in an electronic device including a vibration device, and a touch panel, the method comprising:
-
detecting, by the touch panel, a grasp by detecting an approach of a body part outside an edge of the touch panel; detecting, by the touch panel, a contact of a body part on the touch panel; vibrating the vibration device for a predetermined time, when the touch panel detects the contact, while the touch panel detects the grasp; and vibrating no portion of the electronic device, when the touch panel detects the contact, while the touch panel detects the grasp.
