A display device includes a substrate including a front portion, a first side portion extending from a first side of the front portion, a second side portion extending from a second side of the front portion, and a corner portion between the first side portion and the second side portion and having a cutout pattern, a first display area including first pixels in the front portion, and a second display area including second pixels and dummy pixel driving units in the cutout pattern of the corner portion. Each of the second pixels includes a subpixel light emitting unit emitting light and a subpixel driving unit connected to the subpixel light emitting unit. Any one of the dummy pixel driving units is closer to an edge of the cutout pattern than the subpixel driving unit of any one of the second pixels is the edge of the cutout pattern.

The present disclosure relates to a display device.
As the information society develops, demands for display devices for displaying images are increasing in various forms. For example, display devices are being applied to various electronic devices such as smartphones, digital cameras, notebook computers, navigation devices, and smart televisions.
The display devices may be flat panel display devices such as liquid crystal display devices, field emission display devices, and light emitting display devices. The light emitting display devices include an organic light emitting display device including an organic light emitting element, an inorganic light emitting display device including an inorganic light emitting element such as an inorganic semiconductor, and a micro-light emitting display device including a micro-light emitting element.
The above and other embodiments and features of the present disclosure will become more apparent by describing embodiments thereof with reference to the attached drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a display device according to an embodiment;
FIG. 2 is an illustrative view of the display device according to the embodiment;
One or more aspects of one or more embodiments of the present disclosure and methods of accomplishing the same may be understood more readily by reference to the detailed description of embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments, however, may be embodied in various different forms, and should not be construed as being limited to only the illustrated embodiments herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided as examples so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the aspects of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, processes, elements, and techniques that are not necessary to those having ordinary skill in the art for a complete understanding of the aspects of the present disclosure might not be described.
Unless otherwise noted, like reference numerals, characters, or combinations thereof denote like elements throughout the attached drawings and the written description, and thus, descriptions thereof may not be repeated. Further, parts not related to the description of one or more embodiments might not be shown to make the description clear.
In the drawings, the relative sizes of elements, layers, and regions may be exaggerated for clarity. Additionally, the use of cross-hatching and/or shading in the accompanying drawings is generally provided to clarify boundaries between adjacent elements. As such, neither the presence nor the absence of cross-hatching or shading conveys or indicates any preference or requirement for particular materials, material properties, dimensions, proportions, commonalities between illustrated elements, and/or any other characteristic, attribute, property, etc., of the elements, unless specified.
