Abstract

The present disclosure provides a foldable display device and an electronic apparatus, wherein a protection layer as an outermost layer of a flexible display screen is connected to an ornamental member, and an activity space is reserved between the ornamental member and inner side surfaces of a frame. As such, when the flexible display screen is folded, side edges of the protection layer may be shifted forward with respect to a display module, and then the ornamental member may approach the frame in a direction in which the protection layer is shifted, so that the ornamental member may conceal the dislocation occurring when the flexible display screen is folded, along with the protection layer, so as to improve the user's look-and-feel.
