The present disclosure discloses an electronic device and an information processing method. The electronic device comprises a detection unit configured to detect biological parameters of a user wearing the electronic device. Specifically, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the electronic device is a wearable portable electronic device, and a first detection contact point and a second detection contact point comprised by the detection unit for detecting the biological parameters of the user are two electrodes, respectively. Thus, the electronic device which is worn on the body of a user can rapidly detect body impedance of the user through signal interaction between the two electrodes, so as to reduce the cost of detection of the body impedance and also improve the convenience in detection of the body impedance.
