Abstract
The present invention provides a display device that can improve the detection sensitivity for detecting the approach of a user's face, hand, or the like. The display deviceincludes a display substrate D and a bezelthat covers side surfaces and a rear surface of the display substrate D. The bezelincludes a conductive sectionand an insulating section. The insulating sectioncovers the side surfaces and the rear surface of the display substrate D and has insulating properties. The conductive sectionis provided on a surface of the insulating sectioncovering the side surfaces of the display substrate D and has conductivity. The conductive sectionis configured such that a predetermined voltage is applied thereto and a capacitance is formed between the conductive sectionand a dielectric object.
