Abstract
A display device, when fully unfolded, has a first display area, a first bendable area, and a second display area along a first direction, the first bendable area connecting the first display area with the second display area. The display device includes: a flexible display screen including a light exiting surface and an opposite light non-exiting surface; a support structure including an elastic support net including first and second ends along the first direction; and a support layer located on a light non-exiting surface side of the flexible display screen and including a first stop portion located in the second display area. The first end is fixed to the support layer in the first display area; and when the flexible display screen is fully unfolded, the elastic support net is loosened and the second end is in contact with the first stop portion to support the first bendable area.
