3. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first area and the second area are formed of the same material.
4. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the first area and the second area include polyurethane or rubber.
5. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first area and the second area are formed of different materials.
6. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the first area includes rubber and the second area includes polyurethane.
7. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second area also surrounds an outer portion of the first area.
8. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:
the buffer member further includes a third area,
the third area has an elasticity greater than an elasticity of the first area.
9. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 8 , wherein:
the third area has a density greater than a density of the first area, and
the first area has a density greater than a density of the second area.
10. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the first area, the second area, and the third area are formed of the same material.
11. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 8 , wherein at least two areas of the first area, the second area, and the third area are formed of different materials.
12. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display, comprising:
a panel assembly, the panel assembly including an organic light emitting diode;
a bezel, the bezel receiving the panel assembly; and
a buffer member, the buffer member being attached to a side of the panel assembly and being between the panel assembly and the bezel,
wherein the buffer member includes a first area, a second area, and a third area, the first area having an elasticity greater than an elasticity of the second area and the third area having an elasticity greater than the elasticity of the first area.
13. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the first area is disposed at a center portion of the buffer member, the second area is disposed along a circumferential portion of the first area, and the third area is disposed along a circumferential portion of the second area.
14. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the second area also surrounds an outer portion of the third area.
15. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the second area is disposed at a center portion of the buffer member, the third area is disposed along a circumferential portion of the second area, and the first area is disposed along a circumferential portion of the third area.
16. The organic light emitting diode (OLED) display as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the second area also surrounds an outer portion of the first area.
17. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display, comprising:
a panel assembly, the panel assembly including an organic light emitting diode;
a bezel, the bezel receiving the panel assembly; and
