Abstract: A flexible display apparatus includes a display panel, a case and a plurality of driving circuits. The display panel is configured to display an image. The display panel includes a first display part, a second display part and a hinge display part. The hinge display part is interposed between the first and second display parts. The hinge display part is configured to be foldable. The case is configured to cover the display panel. The case forms a hinge thickness with the hinge display part and it also forms a peripheral thickness at an end of the case facing away from the hinge display part. The peripheral thickness is greater than the hinge thickness. The driving circuits are disposed between a rear surface of the first display part and the case. Therefore, thickness of the display panel is decreased and its portability is improved.
