Display device and method of manufacturing electronic device using the same
A display device includes a display module, a protective film, and a cover member. The display module includes a non-bending area, and a bending area bent from the non-bending area. The protective film is peelably attached to a bottom surface of the display module, the protection film being configured to be peeled off the bottom surface. The cover member includes a first contact portion coupled to one area of the protective film, a bending protection portion supporting one end of the display module, and a connecting portion having one end connected to the first contact portion and another end connected to the bending protection portion. A planar shape of the first contact portion includes a curved edge.
1. A display device comprising:
a display module comprising:
a non-bending area; and
a bending area bent from the non-bending area;
a protective film peelably attached to a bottom surface of the display module, the protection film being configured to be peeled off the bottom surface; and
