Abstract

A touch display device including a pixel array substrate, a touch substrate, a display medium layer, a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer, and a conductor is provided. The touch substrate is disposed above the pixel array substrate. The display medium layer is disposed between the pixel array substrate and the touch substrate. The first conductive layer is disposed on one surface of the touch substrate. The second conductive layer is disposed on the other surface of the touch substrate. The conductor is disposed along a sidewall of the touch substrate to connect between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer.
