1. An electronic device comprising:
a display;
an optical sensor disposed under the display;
memory storing one or more computer programs; and
one or more processors communicatively coupled to the display, the optical sensor, and the memory,
wherein the display comprises:
a first region having a first pixel density, and
a second region having a second pixel density, which is less than the first pixel density, and corresponding to a disposition region of the optical sensor, and
wherein the one or more computer programs include computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors individually or collectively, cause the electronic device to:
identify a first brightness level for the first region,
in case that the first brightness level exceeds a specified threshold, determine a second brightness level for the second region, based on at least one of the first brightness level, the first pixel density, and the second pixel density,
identify a third region of the display defined to include the second region, the second region being disposed along an edge of the first region, the third region being defined along all edges of the first region to surround the first region, and
configure the brightness of the second region and the third region as the second brightness level.
