  • Publication number: 20260164580
    Abstract: A display device in some examples can include grooves of different shapes depending on areas on an upper surface of the rear cover that is joined along a rear edge of a cover window. Adhesive strength between the cover window and the rear cover can be maximized. Since a width of the rear cover can be reduced, a width of a bezel corresponding to a non-display area can be reduced.
