Abstract
An electronic device may have a housing and a display in the housing. The display may have one or more curved edges such as curved edges associated with rounded corners in the display and housing. The display may have an array of pixels. The display may include full-strength pixels and may have a band of antialiasing pixels having selectively reduced strengths to visually smooth content displayed along the curved edges. The antialiasing pixels may include single-opening pixels that each have a single opaque masking layer opening and may include dual-opening pixels that each include a pair of opaque masking layer openings. The single-opening pixels may be stronger than the dual-opening pixels.
