Foldable display device
A foldable display device includes a plurality of layers bonded to each other. The plurality of layers includes a light emitting diode substrate layer, a cover window layer including a window film through which light from a first surface of the light emitting diode substrate layer is emitted, a shock-absorber layer located on a second surface of the light emitting diode substrate layer. The second surface is a surface opposite to the first surface. A dimension of the light emitting diode substrate layer measured along a folding axis is larger than a dimension of at least one layer in the plurality of layers.
