Abstract
A display apparatus includes a flexible substrate, first pixels, and second pixels. The flexible substrate includes: a first area at least partially bent about an axis; and at least one non-bent area. The first pixels are disposed in the first area. The second pixels are disposed in the at least one non-bent area. Respective widths of each first pixel in a first direction are smaller than respective widths of each second pixel in the first direction.
