Display device

Abstract

The present invention provides a technique that is capable of preventing a separation of elements of the display panel of a slim display device in which the bending radius of a flexible printed circuit is small. A flexible printed circuit connects to a first side of the display panel proximate to an end surface of the display panel and is bent in the vicinity of the end surface, and a part of the flexible printed circuit is disposed between the back of a backlight and a holder. The holder has an opening or a depression in the vicinity of an end surface of the backlight corresponding to the end surface of the display panel. The flexible printed circuit has a portion which is deflected so that a portion thereof projects into a space in the opening or the depression in the holder, as viewed in section.
