Abstract

A display method for a display panel, and an electronic device. The electronic device stores at least two compensation gray level relationships, a first compensation gray level relationship matches a first gray level range, a second compensation gray level relationship matches a second gray level range, the first compensation gray level relationship is fitted and generated based on an N-nomial algorithm, and the second compensation gray level relationship is obtained in a linear interpolation manner. A gray level value within the first gray level range is greater than a gray level value within the second gray level range. The method includes: obtaining a gray level value of each pixel of an input image; performing gray level compensation on the input image based on the gray level value of each pixel and the at least two compensation gray level relationships; and displaying a compensated image.
