Unanswered Questions
How does the bending area affect the overall durability of the display panel?
The bending area allows the display panel to bend without damaging the screen, but further research is needed to determine the long-term effects on durability.
What materials are used in the cover window to ensure protection of the display panel?
The materials used in the cover window play a crucial role in protecting the display panel, and more information on this aspect would be beneficial for understanding the technology better.
Original Abstract Submitted
a display apparatus includes a display panel including a display area and a bending area which is spaced apart from the display area and at which the display panel is bendable to define a bent portion, and a cover window which is in the bending area and covers the display panel. the display panel which is bent includes an adjacent portion of the display panel which is closer to the cover window than the bent portion, overlaps the bent portion and is unbent.
