Abstract
A display module includes a display panel, a touch sensor, and a pressure sensor. A base member of the display panel includes a first portion, a second portion extending from the first portion, and a third portion extending from the second portion. The touch sensor is disposed on the first portion of the base member. The pressure sensor is disposed on the third portion of the base member. When the second portion of the base member is bent, the pressure sensor overlaps the first portion of the base member.
