The curved portion of the display panel is disposed along an entirety of an edge area of the display panel to minimize a non-display area.
Claims18
A display device, comprising:
- a display panel including a flat portion and a plurality of curved portions extending from the flat portion in a bent manner;
- a front member disposed on the display panel;
- and
- an adhesive layer disposed between the display panel and the front member,
- wherein the plurality of curved portions include:
- a first curved portion disposed at and along at least one of sides of the display panel;
- and
- a second curved portion disposed at one or more of corners between the sides of the display panel, and
- wherein the adhesive layer has a size smaller than a size of each of the display panel and the front member,
- wherein the first curved portion includes a first exposed side portion on which the adhesive layer is not disposed,
- wherein the second curved portion includes a second exposed rounded corner portion on which the adhesive layer is not disposed, and
- wherein a first distance between an outer edge of the first exposed side portion of the display panel and a first outer edge of the adhesive layer is less than a second distance between an outer edge of the second exposed rounded corner portion of the display panel and a second outer edge of the adhesive layer.
