Display device having a multilayered optical stack in combination with a display panel and a touch panel

A display device, comprising:

• a light-emitting diode display panel;
• a touch panel;
• and
• an optical stack including a hard coat layer, a polarizer, an optical compensation layer, and a resin layer which are disposed in this order from a viewer side, the optical stack being configured to compensate for light that is internally reflected within the light-emitting diode display panel,
• the touch panel including an electrode for driving the touch panel,
• the electrode being disposed between the resin layer and the optical compensation layer,
• the polarizer including a compound of a first polymerizable liquid crystal that is aligned by the first alignment film,
• the optical compensation layer including a compound of a second polymerizable liquid crystal that is aligned by the second alignment film, and
• out of the first polymerizable liquid crystal and the second polymerizable liquid crystal, only the first polymerizable liquid crystal including a dichroic pigment;
• wherein:
• the resin layer is disposed on the light-emitting diode display panel;
• the optical compensation layer is present only on the viewer side of the electrode for driving the touch panel;
• and
• the display device is a flexible display device.
