Abstract
A display device may include a display panel and an input sensor. Mesh lines of the input sensor may include first mesh lines extending in a first direction and second mesh lines extending in a second direction crossing the first direction. The first mesh lines and the second mesh lines may cross each other at a plurality of cross points. In a unit region of the sensing electrode, first cutting points may be defined in the first mesh lines and the second mesh lines, and second cutting points may be defined in the first mesh lines and the second mesh lines.
