Abstract
A back plane or carrier (5), mechanically coupled to display panels (2) is bendable or foldable. Preferably it is zigzag foldable in one direction, the pitch of zigzag in the unfolded position being substantially equal to the dimension of the corresponding display panel in said direction. This leads to very efficient packaging of the display device in the second (folded) position, especially when the back plane is also zigzag foldable in the second direction.
