Abstract
A display device includes a display panel, a member, a first fixing portion, a second fixing portion, and a roll-up portion. The display device has a function that enables selection between a first state in which an image is displayed with the display panel not folded and a second state in which an image is displayed with the display panel folded. The display panel is fixed to the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion. One end of the member is fixed to the first fixing portion. The other end of the member is connected to the roll-up portion. The roll-up portion has a function that enables rolling up of the member from the other end of the member. The display panel is folded by rolling up the member. The display panel is unfolded by pulling out the rolled-up member from the roll-up portion.
