Abstract
An electronic device includes a display module including a display panel including a first area in which a pixel is disposed, a second area adjacent to the first area and bent with respect to an imaginary axis, a data line connected to the pixel, and a first line insulated from the pixel, an optical film, and a bending cover layer and a window module including a glass substrate and a window protective layer including a cover portion disposed on the glass substrate and a protrusion portion protruding from the cover portion. An end of the optical film and an end of the bending cover layer, which faces the end of the optical film, defines a separation area, the data line and the first line overlap the separation area when viewed in a plane, and the protrusion portion overlaps the first line in the separation area when viewed in a plane.
