Apparatus having light guide for illuminating a display unit and for illuminating a patterned region

A display apparatus, comprising:

• a display unit having a display region;
• a protecting cover having a patterned region, wherein a portion of the protecting cover overlaps the display region and another portion of the protecting cover having the patterned region does not overlap the display region;
• a light guide plate disposed between the display unit and the protecting cover, and having a first light scattering region and a second light scattering region, wherein the first light scattering region at least partially overlaps the display region, and the second light scattering region at least partially overlaps the patterned region;
• a light emitting unit emitting a light beam to the light guide plate, wherein a part of the light beam is scattered to the display region by the first light scattering region after entering the light guide plate, and another part of the light beam is scattered to the patterned region by the second light scattering region after entering the light guide plate;
• a first transparent adhesive layer connecting the light guide plate and the protecting cover;
• and
• a second transparent adhesive layer connecting the light guide plate and the display unit, wherein the first transparent adhesive layer covers the second light scattering region, and the second transparent adhesive layer is located outside the second light scattering region.
